Abstract
Feelings of comfort and safety are among the most important issues that sustain cities, and crime is one of the most important factors in reducing the level of safety in society. There are many theories available in the field of urban crime, but due to the high cost and inefficiency of these methods, crime prevention strategy and investigation of the principles of this approach becomes more and more necessary through the design of urban environments. This theory claims that with proper use and density and environmental design, in addition to reducing criminal opportunities, the quality of life can also be increased. The purpose of this paper is to identify the causes of reduced security in urban residential areas and to examine the relationship between these factors and high-rise construction. Therefore, using descriptive and library methods, the relationship between density and security is examined and finally the practical strategies of this theory are explained to prevent crime in residential areas.
