Flock & ALPR Cameras in Grafton, Wisconsin
Volunteers have reported 17 automated license plate readers in and around Grafton — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.
Jurisdiction · by recorded street address
The 17 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Grafton, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 13 of them sit inside Grafton itself.
The rest sit in Mequon (2), Cedarburg (1), Town of Grafton (1).
10 of them name an operator in the record: Grafton Police Dept (6), Flock Safety (2), The Home Depot (2). The operator is who runs the camera, which is not always the local government.

What’s watching Grafton
These aren’t red-light cameras. Automated license plate readers like Flock Safety’s photograph every plate that passes, log the time and place, and store it in a searchable database that’s often shared far beyond Grafton — here’s where that data goes. Counts cover cameras reported closest to Grafton (within ~20 km), so nearby towns share the same corridors. Spot one that’s missing? Report it on DeFlock.
