Safety against burglary and violence is often a concern for real estate occupants. Yet little attention is devoted to such attributes. This is because of PC reasons; violent criminals in the neighborhood tend to be of ethnic minorities. Nearby located social housing concentrations and, more sporadically, asylum centres are the main threats. Here also the characteristics of the wider area and the spaces between the premises matter. In this task city planning and real estate departments can help, as can state security apparatuses and appropriate legislation. Furthermore, local history cannot be overlooked, as community spirit, in whatever sense, matters for the resulting real estate fortunes. Generally speaking, for our real estate security situations – and by implication, real estate economy – to survive, we must promote evolutionary and anti-egalitarian concepts for maintaining safe places, rather than the degenerate contemporary trends we witness in western academia, media and governance. These writings attempt to do just that: argue for realistic views on how the built environment can be managed aptly in the face of potentially calamitous social hazards.
