Abstract :Crime prevention through environmental design theories focus on the relationship between crime and the environment. In this study, it is aimed to investigate the relationship between the design of urban green spaces and the perception of safety and to develop design impact criteria and indicators. The research applied multiple research techniques under the name of social impact assessment to measure the effect of spatial features on the perception of safety in Ankara- Dikmen Valley. At the same time, spatial features and design criteria put forward by ecological crime theories and K. Lynch\\\'s space and perception criteria were evaluated and these criteria were differentiated and grouped under five dimensions. These are; social profile, comfort, harmony, legibility and transparency. These five dimensions and the sub-headings created under them are defined as the design impact indicator set. As a result of the research a compatible result is obtained.
