In Łód , contemporary residential buildings started to be developed
simultaneously to free market and private ownership of means of production
introduction. Since then companies have been able to invest their surpluses in the
development of magnificent residential buildings. However, the new structures are
not as impressive as the 19 c. ones. The new constructions have a more residential
then representative function. They are design to be very comfortable houses,
preferably isolated from the neighbourhood.
In the paper the author used the urban criteria applied to determined residential
buildings in Poland. This means that the surface area of an estate should be larger
then 2 000 meter sq., a plot for development should be bigger then 300 meter sq. and
it should not be higher than three storeys. Taking into consideration its physiognomy
it should also be finished with a superior standard of materials and include such
facilities as a swimming pool, tennis court or winter garden.
In 2007, there were only 150 such buildings in Łód – their localisation are
shown in picture no. 1. Spatial distribution of new residential buildings is correlated
to the availability of plots. Because of the price of residential grounds spacious
representative houses were built mainly on the outskirts of the town, having been
surrounded by new and old single-family housing. They are not in easy reach since
they were located away from main roads. Location seems to be random in many cases. Impressive houses do not
correspond with their surroundings. Residences function rather as asylums for their
dwellers and are carefully protected by guards and watchdogs. New residential areas
constitute only 0,6% of the town overall territory. Because of the shortage of
available plots those who can afford to take over park land or woodland areas which
should be assessed as a negative phenomenon.

This article consists of two parts: short theoretical admission and the main,
empirical part. The main part presents the analysis of the level of fear of crime, the
factors that influence it and characteristics of the prevalence in recorded crime of five
selected housing estates: D browa (block housing estate mainly dates from 1970−75
years), Jagiełły-Czarnieckiego (building dates from the years 1975−80), Karolew
(blocks from the second half of the sixties), Kurak (older buildings were designed for
habitation before the 1965 year) and Widzew-Wschód (housing estate was built in
the eighties).
The author analyzes research results regarding three main aspects of the sense of
security: cognitive (What is the likelihood that you will become a victim of offence?,
What is the likelihood that you will become a victim of one of the forms of offence mentioned below (such: beaten, robbed, assaulted, molested etc)?), emotional (How
often do you usually walk alone in this area after dark?) and behavioural
(active/passive forms of protection). As well socio-demographic factors of residents
that influence the level of fear were studied.
In five research areas, respondents assessed the dangers and threats in their
neighbourhood in a different way but there are not identified any significant spatial
variations in sense of security. On the other hand, there are many interesting
correlations between three main components of the fear of crime and between
components and certain socio-demographic respondent’s characteristics as well. The
survey also confirmed a lack of correlation between the sense of security and the real
level of recorded crime.
