License plate readers in Medford, MA
Volunteers have documented 21 automated license plate readers inside Medford. That is the 10th-largest total among the 27 Massachusetts cities indexed here, and 1.8% of the statewide total. At 2.6 per square mile it is more densely covered than 71% of the 2,231 US cities indexed nationally. No manufacturer was recorded for 90% of them, so the vendor mix here is less certain than the count. Every mount volunteers recorded here is the same kind: walls.

These locations were documented in the field by OpenStreetMap volunteers and refresh automatically every six hours. They are evidence of where cameras have been seen — not a complete or official inventory, and cameras may have been added or removed since documentation. Corrections happen upstream: edit OpenStreetMap and this page will update. Read more in our methodology.
