This paper explains the link between the neighborhood form (physical characteristics of streets layouts) and the occurrence of crimes in residential neighborhoods. The research findings indicate that there is relationship between the physical makeups of the neighborhood elements such as streets layout plan, Land use zooning and streets design with crime occurrences. This part also indicates how different environmental or physical character of a neighborhood elements influences crimes. The physical characteristics which prevent public surveillance are characterized by high rates of crime compared to area where there is public severance. Physical elements of the residential neighbourhood that have been designed and implemented haven’t considered safety and security. These brought crimes in areas such as along the roads, inside the houses, in space between structures, in open spaces and in abandoned properties. On residential rods crimes tend to occur due to lack of street lights and lack of walk ways. On residential houses crimes occurred due to disorder block layout design, imbalance of land uses, lack of fences, and poor maintenance of openings. On open spaces crimes occurred due to lack of lightings, street furniture, Informal actives carried out in open spaces and Poor maintenance of open spaces. Finally, crimes occurrence on between structures was due to narrow street paths and lack of outdoors lightings including side to side walls lightings during the night. I. INTR
