Nowadays, population growth has caused many problems, such as various crimes, lack of safety, security, the emergence of a crisis of quality, etc. This has attracted the attention of planners and urban designers to urban and urban spaces. Thus, considering the 24-hour life of modern cities, attention has been paid to lighting as one of the key elements in improving the quality of the environment. The present study, considering the importance of this issue and its relationship with the crime prevention approach through environmental design in general, the lighting and street lighting approach in particular, in order to increase the natural monitoring, face recognition, proper street lighting and, consequently, Reducing disputes like insecurity. The purpose of this study is to evaluate, compare and, if possible, provide solutions to crime prevention and increase security by appropriately using light sources in new cities. To achieve this goal, the current situation has been gathered through field studies and information and has been studied using the Relux Professional Simulation Software. The results indicate that there is no proper lighting in the Phase 3 range and its lack of conformity with international standards. Phase 1 of Sahand new city, according to the obtained results and field studies performed in accordance with the standards and has a low crime rate. Consequently, in this study, suggestions for the Phase 3 range include increasing the passage of light sources, embedding light sources on a human scale, increasing the mean horizontal and vertical brightness, and focusing on important areas of the range, including the main inputs and commercial uses. The results indicate improvements in the Phase 3 range based on the principles of crime prevention through environmental design in general, lighting and street lighting in particular.
