Analysis and explanation of security in the urban environment based on physical development (Case Study: Isfahan Metropolis)

Abstract

The sense of security is one of the indices of quality of life in cities and social injuries are considered as the most important consequences of lack of security. The concept of security and the sense of security recently introduced in urban affairs and urban planning. One of the developmental indices that affects the security of urban spaces is physical indices. Therefore, the need to pay attention to physical development, and its planning for sustainable urban development in the framework of national, regional and urban planning, is more and more felt. So the aim of this study is Analysis and explanation of security in the urban environment based on physical development. As a case study, Isfahan Metropolis of Iran is investigated. The research method is analytical and based on library, documentary and field studies. SPSS software was used for analysis. The results of research showed that in all of the indices mentioned, among the indices (placement of telephone and newspaper bills or mobile kiosks in crime areas, the use of fences and symbolic constraints or actual restrictions, adequate use of railings, warning signs and glass and windows, observance of space lighting standards, optimal upgrades and enough gates, entrances), the average value of them is less than the midpoint of 3. The rest of the indices considered above are above the median of 3, which indicates a high level of security based on physical indices. Finally, in the second hypothesis, the significance level is less than 0.05. In this way, we can conclude that there is a meaningful relationship between two variables of physical and security development indices.
