Abstract
This paper aims to clarify of the relationship between dangerous places and anxiety places through elementary-age children's eyes. At first, we identify common factors of the crime ratio with socioeconomic elements. Even though increased joblessness usually means increased crime rates, Okinawa exceptions to something. Next, we did a questionnaire to elementary-age children. Children's anxieties have a great bearing on their experience of crime and tangible place situation. Primary, deference of children's anxieties to some places owes to the deference of sex. Secondary, it owes to deference of existence or nonexistence of anticrime training. Especially, the training enhances the girl's ability of consciousness to dangerous places.
