Where license plate readers are watching

A map of the United States with each county shaded based on the total number of ALPR cameras (automated license plate readers). These are also commonly referred to as Flock Safety cameras. Darkest shades of purple, such as Harris County, Texas or Los Angeles County, California, have more than 3,000 cameras each. Most counties have less than 50, often less than 10. Many counties have none listed and are shown in gray.
