to directly prevent criminals from casing a potential crime scene, from lurkers in the shadows, from unauthorized access. Like a locked door, or razor wire would. Furthermore, unlike traditional crime prevention, CPTED carries the risk that it can be implemented in poorly informed ways such that it will increase vulnerability to crime, and to a degree that is not an issue with traditional security design.

551:(The Oscar Newman HUD paper ...)... The main CPTED interventions, gating off streets and alleys to create "mini-neighborhoods" have now been removed in many places, as you can see on Google Maps, raising questions as to how its long-term cost/benefit ratio was understood. Newman also claims in this paper that many of the people opposing his designs on Dayton were "well-spoken friends" of drug dealers and pimps.

512:"Research into criminal behavior shows that the decision to offend or not to offend is more influenced by cues to the perceived risk of being caught than by cues to reward or ease of entry. Certainty of being caught is the main deterrence for criminals not the severity of the punishment so by raising the certainty of being captured, criminal actions will decrease."

increasing number of city and county governments in my state have made it a requirement for buildings aside from single family dwellings to have a CPTED review done as part of the building process. This article can use work for sure, but the tone of your comment seems to be that the subject lacks notability. Perhaps I'm wrong.

CPTED is currently little taught in schools of planning and architecture, and other than basic awareness of the concept it is not included in the corpus of knowledge needed for professional exams in those fields. Given that the idea has been in circulation for half a century (dating from the 1970

Other than this study (which is not freely available online), most thinking about public-space design comes from Oscar Newman and Jane Jacobs. As an architect and a journalist, respectively, their approaches were observational/anecdotal and prescriptive. While many of their recommendations might

The Oscar Newman HUD paper that is linked claims crime decreases in a case-study neighborhood of Dayton, OH. However, the physical CPTED interventions were part of a package of strategies that were more properly called management, not design.

This issue is separate from the displacement vs elimination issue. Choosing between prevention and deterrence is a confusing distinction, I see that. Thanks for bringing this out with your question. At the time I created this article, the term

Management is consistent with a general understanding of how CPTED is implemented. The lede reads: "Crime prevention through environmental design (CPTED) is an agenda for manipulating the built environment to create safer neighborhoods."--

The difference between prevention and deterrence is hard to make out. Is this connected to your other point (always made about successful crimefighting) that it just displaces the problem, rather than eliminating it?
