In 1971, criminologist C. Ray Jeffery, PhD, published a groundbreaking book titled Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design—introducing what we now know as CPTED. His theory was as visionary as it was practical: to prevent crime, we must design the total environment in ways that reduce the opportunities for it to occur.
