주택유형이 절도범죄 발생에 미치는 영향 - 2024년 서울시를 대상으로

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This study examines the relationship between theft crime and residential and socioeconomic factors across the 25 districts of Seoul in 2024. The number of theft crimes was used as the dependent variable, while housing types (detached houses, multi-family housing, apartments, row houses, and officetels), vacant houses, the number of CCTV cameras, and average income per capita were included as independent variables. In particular, 2024 represents the period following the lifting of COVID-19 restrictions. During the pandemic, crime patterns became more concealed or shifted toward non-face-to-face methods due to policies such as social distancing and restrictions on gatherings. Accordingly, this study analyzes changes in theft crimes, which are closely related to public safety. The results indicate that apartments have a crime-reducing effect, whereas officetels are associated with an increase in crime. This study provides a foundational analysis of the relationship between theft crime and residential as well as economic factors in the post-COVID-19 context. It also offers policy implications for developing theft prevention strategies tailored to different housing types through the application of Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED).
