Flock Cameras in Greenville, SC: Locations, Map & Count

The operator table is headed by Greenville Police Department at 61 cameras (18%), then Greenville County Sheriff's Office at 38. Beyond the top of the table it is a long tail: 23 separate operators in all, ranking Greenville 116th of 251 on operator count.

Not every reader here belongs to a public body. Lowe's (11) appears among the largest operators, and 10 of the cameras carrying an operator type are recorded as private.

89% of the mapped cameras around Greenville (303 of 339) carry a facing direction — 146th of the 251 tracked metros. Bearings are what make camera-aware routing possible, so the higher that share, the more the avoidance layer can do here.

Public records cover 6 agencies around Greenville in the EFF Atlas of Surveillance against 23 operators on the map — the difference between a records project and a mapping project, not a contradiction.

Sheriff's offices are prominent: Greenville County Sheriff's Office and Pickens County Sheriff's Office sit in the top twelve, alongside municipal forces such as Travelers Rest Police Department, Simpsonville Police Department, Greer Police Department.

Read from the live map on 13 October 2026. Since 5 October 2026 the 10-mile count moved from 190 to 202 (+12) and the metro-box count moved from 320 to 339 (+19). The underlying records are OpenStreetMap entries plus community submissions — nobody who operates a camera is obliged to declare it, so these are the documented minimum rather than the full picture. The metro is a box roughly 50 miles across centred on Greenville.

Greenville ranks 123rd of the 251 metro areas BanditKin tracks by mapped cameras, between Provo, UT and Athens, GA, and 116th by operator count.

Its cameras-per-operator figure of 14.7 ranks 133rd, its lead operator's 18% share ranks 160th, and its 89% bearing coverage ranks 146th — all of 251.

Ranked against the 251 metro areas BanditKin tracks, every one read from the live map on 13 October 2026. Metro areas are drawn as a box around the city centre, so neighbouring metros can share cameras and these counts must never be added together.

These are the 20 largest of 23 operators. Where OpenStreetMap names an operator we use that name; otherwise the camera is attributed to whichever jurisdiction it stands in (222 cameras here), which is a sound inference rather than a confirmed fact. 103 cameras record no operator of any kind.

Manufacturer is a free-text field, so spellings and legal names have been consolidated here. 10 of 339 mapped cameras name no manufacturer at all, which makes the actual distribution broader than shown. These count cameras on the map, not purchase orders.

Look for a slim grey or black box the size of a shoebox on its own pole, usually paired with a small solar panel, at intersections and on the approaches to shopping centres. Recorded mounts around Greenville:

One camera covers one approach, so its heading is what decides which journeys end up recorded. Around Greenville the mapped bearings distribute like this:

Bearings come from public map data and describe an approximate capture zone, never an exact field of view. 35 mapped cameras have no recorded bearing, and 1 is tagged as omnidirectional.
