Surveillance Grade

F
Los Angeles — CA

Extremely high surveillance. One of the most heavily monitored cities in the US.

UnFlocked grades cities based on estimated camera density relative to population and road network size. A higher grade means more cameras per mile of road — and more scans of your license plate every time you drive.

What Flock Cameras Collect in Los Angeles

Every time you drive past a Flock camera in Los Angeles, the system logs your license plate number, vehicle make, model, color, direction of travel, and any distinctive features like bumper stickers, roof racks, or damage.

That data is uploaded instantly to Flock's cloud platform — Falcon — and shared with every law enforcement agency on the network. In California, that includes local police departments, county sheriffs, and state patrol, all of whom can query your vehicle's movement history with no warrant.

Flock Safety states that data is deleted after 30 days by default — but individual agencies in California can configure longer retention periods, and there is no state law limiting how long this data can be kept.
