Situational Crime Prevention Strategies
Situational crime prevention focuses on reducing opportunities
for crime by altering the environment in which crimes occur.
Here are ten strategies, along with examples for each:
1. Target Hardening
Explanation: Making potential targets more resistant to
crime through physical modifications or enhanced security
measures. Example: Installing high-quality locks and
security systems on doors and windows of homes can deter
burglars by making unauthorized entry more difficult.
2. Surveillance
Explanation: Increasing the visibility of potential targets
through various means to deter criminal activity. Example:
Installing CCTV cameras in public areas like parking lots
or on private property can discourage criminal behavior due
to the increased risk of being caught on camera.
