Abstract

ABSTRACT Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) has long been regarded as a promising approach to enhancing community safety by leveraging the physical environment to deter criminal activity. However, most studies on CPTED largely characterized by theoretical propositions and speculative discussions, lacking empirical evidence to support its effectiveness. This lack of empirical validation has hindered the adoption and implementation of CPTED strategies in practice. Through a quantitative approach, this study facilitates a shift towards evidence-based practice, with a specific focus on micro-level physical characteristics. The derived probability equation demonstrates promising predictive capabilities, suggesting its potential for anticipating robbery occurrences.
