Summary: | Understanding the spatial distribution of crime patterns or poor safety perceptions equips us with valuable insights to guide resource allocation. In this special issue, we present examples of articles in environmental criminology, focusing on the use of spatial and temporal-based methods for crime and safety analysis. The contributions are from Sweden, Canada, New Zealand, and Pakistan, showcasing a diverse array of data and methods. Almost all articles are from sessions presented in the International Symposium in “Environmental Criminology and Crime Analysis” ECCA 2023, organized by the guest editor's university, and in “the Stockholm Criminology Symposium” that took place in Stockholm in June 2023. This introduction finishes with a summary of the articles of this collection. |
