What international research shows
Published findings on this kind of intervention elsewhere, not results measured on this site.
The same 40-year meta-analysis found CCTV was associated with about 16% lower odds of property crime and about 16% lower odds of vehicle crime, the offence types where cameras have the clearest effect.

The effect was modest overall, and the review found no significant effect on violent crime, which is why cameras work best as one layer alongside access control and response.
