Abstract
The joint housing quality inspection conducted since January 2021 for residential complexes with 300 or more units is an essential aspect of institutional verification aimed at providing residents with a safe and comfortable living environment. This study selectively identified items related to crime prevention environmental design from among the frequently cited 80 items in such inspections, and examined the importance of planning and implementing crime prevention environmental design through application in three selected case studies of residential complexes. The investigation revealed that the current inspection items for joint housing quality inspections lack elements related to crime prevention environmental design, and that some residential complexes surveyed did not meet the standards. Based on these findings, this study derives the following implications: Joint housing quality inspections in South Korea should not only consider the construction and durability of apartments but also expand the scope of inspection items to include various aspects such as surveillance, access control, spatial zoning, usability, clarity, and maintenance and management, including crime prevention environmental design. It is expected that this approach will help ensure the safety and comfort of apartment residents and enhance the safety and stability of urban communities.
