• Within half a mile of a mapped camera72% of the area

Both figures are shares of the area inside the boundary of Arcadia: the part that lies within 400 metres (about a quarter mile) and within 800 metres (about half a mile) of a mapped camera, wherever that camera stands. They describe distance to a pin and nothing else. In the median place measured nationwide, 46% of the area inside the boundary lies within half a mile of a mapped camera.

The gap is the straight-line distance from each mapped camera in Arcadia to the nearest other one in Arcadia. Half of the gaps are shorter than 600 feet, and the middle half run from 150 feet to 0.2 miles. In Arcadia, 16 of 46 cameras stand within 200 feet (60 metres) of another, which usually means two on one pole or a group at one intersection.

A direction is recorded for 93% of the cameras here (43 of 46 cameras).

The most common recorded directions are east and west, with 11 cameras each. Because 3 cameras carry two directions and are counted once in each, the eight counts add up to 46 directions from 43 cameras. A direction of exactly 0 is treated as not recorded, because that value is often left on a pin nobody set; that leaves out 2 cameras here.

The direction is the compass bearing a mapper noted for the camera, as it stood when they looked.

For every 10,000 residents, Arcadia has 8.1 mapped cameras. The 2020 Census counted 56,681 residents there. Among the places measured nationwide, the median is 8.1 mapped cameras for every 10,000 residents.

The distance and area figures for Arcadia come from 2,906 sample points, laid 100 metres apart across the area inside its boundary.

Each distance is a straight line from a sample point to the nearest mapped camera of any make, and that camera can stand outside the boundary. The counts are floors: a camera nobody has added to OpenStreetMap is not on this page, and a pin can be out of date.
