Flock Cameras in Colorado: Map, Locations & Count
As of 13 October 2026, 2,810 Flock and ALPR cameras are mapped inside Colorado's borders (2,222 tagged Flock Safety), run by 141 operators. The densest cluster is Denver, at 1,536 mapped cameras. See every camera on the live map below, which way it faces and its approximate capture zone. Free, no account.
Colorado's network is widely spread: Aurora Police Department runs 229 of the state's mapped cameras (8%), and the remaining 92% are split across 140 other agencies and businesses. Unlike metro-area counts, this figure is counted inside the state line, so nothing from neighbouring states leaks in. 657 of the 2,810 cameras carry no operator at all, so the operator shares above are shares of the attributed cameras. Since 5 October 2026 the in-state count moved from 2,786 to 2,810 (+24).

The top of the Colorado table is Aurora Police Department at 229. What matters for anyone reading the map is how long the tail is — 141 operators in total, so most cameras belong to agencies that individually run only a handful. Private businesses appear too: of the cameras with a recorded operator type, 51 are privately operated.
Where the map has no operator tag, the operator is inferred from the surrounding jurisdiction; that applies to 1,917 of 2,810 cameras in Colorado. Treat names as likely, not certain.
