Social interest in "Planning for Crime Prevention", for the purpose of improving urban crime
prevention, is increasing. The previous studies that elucidated the urban environmental factors that
affected the crime played a major part in Planning for Crime Prevention, and, furthermore, these findings
from the previous studies have been used when we discovered a potentially dangerous area. However, in
fact, the urban environmental factors affecting the crime do not cause a crime, and these factors are only
hazard of the crimes. Therefore a purpose of this study is to extract crime hazards through literature
review to investigate urban environmental indexes that are capable of helping a risk evaluation or analysis.

through 2011, the articles on the relationship between urban environment and crime were sorted; 2) The
crime hazards regarding street crimes were extracted from these articles
