• Within half a mile of a mapped camera100% of the area

Both figures are shares of the area inside the boundary of Addison: 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 shares are rounded to whole percents, so 100% can stand for anything from 99.5% of the area inside the boundary upward.

The gap is the straight-line distance from each mapped camera in Addison to the nearest other one in Addison. Half of the gaps are shorter than 150 feet, and the middle half run from 50 feet to 350 feet. In Addison, 41 of 67 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 97% of the cameras here (65 of 67 cameras).

The most common recorded directions are southeast and southwest, with 14 cameras each. Because 16 cameras carry two directions and are counted once in each, the eight counts add up to 81 directions from 65 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 1 camera here.

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

For every 10,000 residents, Addison has 40.2 mapped cameras. The 2020 Census counted 16,661 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 Addison come from 1,135 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 The counts are floors: a camera nobody has added to OpenStreetMap is not on this page, and a pin can be out of date.
