The security of urban spaces is a fundamental requirement for well-functioning and sustainable cities. The study presented here focuses on the accessibility conditions of urban spaces, using Space Syntax Analysis and the topsis method for the construction of a ranking and subsequent comparison between neighbourhoods. The model’s application to the Milan case study highlights how neighbourhoods belonging to the same territorial context can have very different responses to the problem of urban crime, by reason of their physical and functional features. Neighbourhood security should be promoted through the definition of a suitable framework of rules to be constructed on the basis of risk scenario simulations resulting from planning choices and to be introduced in the urban plan.

Abstract
The security of urban spaces is a fundamental requirement for well-functioning and sustainable cities. The study presented here focuses on the accessibility conditions of urban spaces, using Space Syntax Analysis and the topsis method for the construction of a ranking and subsequent comparison between neighbourhoods. The model’s application to the Milan case study highlights how neighbourhoods belonging to the same territorial context can have very different responses to the problem of urban crime, by reason of their physical and functional features. Neighbourhood security should be promoted through the definition of a suitable framework of rules to be constructed on the basis of risk scenario simulations resulting from planning choices and to be introduced in the urban plan.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
