Both figures are shares of the area inside the boundary of Sayreville: 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.
How far apart they stand
- Median gap
- 50 feet
- Middle half of the gaps
- 50 feet to 450 feet
- Within 200 feet of another
- 53 of 84 cameras
The gap is the straight-line distance from each mapped camera in Sayreville to the nearest other one in Sayreville. Half of the gaps are shorter than 50 feet, and the middle half run from 50 feet to 450 feet. In Sayreville, 53 of 84 cameras stand within 200 feet (60 metres) of another, which usually means two on one pole or a group at one intersection.

The most common recorded direction is south, with 25 cameras. Because 22 cameras carry two directions and are counted once in each, the eight counts add up to 92 directions from 70 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 11 cameras here.
The direction is the compass bearing a mapper noted for the camera, as it stood when they looked.

How these figures are worked out
The distance and area figures for Sayreville come from 4,538 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 The counts are floors: a camera nobody has added to OpenStreetMap is not on this page, and a pin can be out of date.
Questions about this page
What does “typical distance” mean for Sayreville?
It is a median, not the distance from any one address. Of the 4,538 sample points inside Sayreville, half are closer to a mapped camera than 0.4 miles and half are farther. For the cameras nearest to a spot you care about, check that address itself.
Why is a camera I have seen not counted here?
Most likely nobody has added it to OpenStreetMap, which is where every pin on this site comes from. That makes each count on this page a floor: the cameras somebody has mapped, and no others. Add the camera there and it shows up here after the next refresh, which runs once a week.
Why does this page say “license plate cameras” and not “Flock cameras”?
Flock Safety is the recorded maker of 48% of the mapped cameras here (40 of 84 cameras). A page on this site names Flock only where that share is 60% or more; below it, the page is about license plate cameras in general and gives the maker split in its first line.
