One of the most important needs in human life is the need for safety. As modern society changes rapidly, crime is also becoming ferocious and intelligent, and as private property increases and individuals change into a self-centered society, exposure to crime can be said to represent vulnerability to crime. The increase in crime rates is a major social problem, and people are living in anxiety and fear that they can become victims because of the increasing number of crimes.

The number of police officers in the entire National Police Agency is used as a dependent variable, and socio-economic and political factors at the national level are used
