BanditKin › Flock camera map › Connecticut
As of 13 October 2026, 1,028 Flock and ALPR cameras are mapped inside Connecticut's borders (655 tagged Flock Safety), run by 91 operators. Around Stamford the map records 1,173, the most of any CT metro. See every camera on the live map below, which way it faces and its approximate capture zone. Free, no account.
Two things stand out in Connecticut. First, the operator list is long — 91 separate bodies — so the lead agency, New Haven Police Department, holds only 11% of the total. Second, the count here is a true in-state figure: every camera was tested against the state polygon, not just a box drawn around a city. 198 of the 1,028 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 1,009 to 1,028 (+19).

Stamford, New Haven, Hartford have full pages with operator, vendor and direction breakdowns; the other metros are covered by the live map. Stamford shows more cameras than the whole state because its box reaches across the state line into a neighbouring state's cameras. These are bounding-box reads around each city, useful for comparing metros but not for adding together — boxes overlap and spill across state lines. The headline figure is counted inside the border and is the honest state total.

91 separate bodies operate mapped readers in Connecticut. New Haven Police Department leads with 111; Capitol County Sheriff's Office runs 78. Of the cameras carrying a recorded operator type, 62 are municipal police, 179 are sheriff's offices and 11 are private.
Names are drawn from OpenStreetMap tags, falling back to the jurisdiction the camera sits in (241 of 1,028 here). A camera's operator is not always the body that paid for it.

The map knows which way 79% of Connecticut's cameras face (807 of 1,028). Mounts, where recorded: pole (395), street lamp (124), sign (5), building (5).
28 Connecticut agencies appear in the EFF Atlas of Surveillance as ALPR users. That is a records count; the 91 operators on the map are a physical count. Both are floors.

The largest clusters are around Stamford (1,173), Bridgeport (560), Waterbury (534), New Haven (475), Hartford (427). Smaller CT towns appear on the live map too — these are simply the biggest metro areas.

No. Flock Safety is tagged on 655 of 948 vendor-recorded cameras (69%); Rekor accounts for 144, and 72 cameras have no vendor recorded at all. 'Flock camera' is the common name, but the map covers every ALPR it can find.
BanditKin's opt-in avoidance uses each camera's approximate capture zone, so it works best where bearings are recorded (79% of Connecticut's cameras). When a clean route isn't possible it falls back to the normal one rather than pretending. It is a privacy preference built on public data, not a way to evade law enforcement.
