The safety of inhabitants and the urban space design – Good practices

Purpose of the study: The main purpose of the article is to present the functional and spatial factors that significantly affect the shaping of safe spaces in the city. Methodology: The article was prepared using a literature review on urban public space context as one of the most important aspects of the city. “Desk research” is the method that was used to analyse. Main findings: Safe spaces in the city focus on safety determinants such as space and function. Space means a selected place where residents do not feel comfortable after dark. The function, on the other hand, indicates the specific socio-economic conditions of the inhabitants. Application of the study: This article refers to social life: officials, entrepreneurs, non-governmental organizations, activists, and in particular, the inhabitants of the city. The content contained in the article may be useful to the inhabitants of the city. Originality/Novelty of the study: The city is a “space” that can be perceived through the prism of various criteria. The article may inspire further research and investigations in the field of the security of urban spaces
