Abstract
Recently, the number of houses where the crime prevention glass and high-tech equipment were set up has increased. Those strategies contains the problem of the cost rise and “fortress mentality”. Therefore, if the balance is not noted, there is a possibility that a difference of the crime prevention performance and various obstacles in life are caused. The crime prevention measures of the part that won't be seen from surroundings are insufficient. Moreover, it is set up in the place where the lighting and the security camera are improper.
If CPTED (Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design) is executed from the plan stage, the crime prevention measures to be effective and balanced can be expected. The cost of the crime prevention glass and the high tech gadget can be reduced if it does so. There is a possibility of improving the community empowerment and the amenity if the resident activity is put in.
It is basic that CPTED works inclusively according to the characteristic of the region and the house. The problem in the future is to enhance the support system.
