At present, CPTED projects are showing an effect such as reducing the anxiety of residents from crimes and improving the criminal environment about crimes through crime prevention. However, most of the CPTED programs have been implemented mainly to improve the physical environment without verifying systematically and empirically on the relationship between the program and improving the quality of life of residents and satisfaction level of residents etc. Accordingly, the objective of this study is to grope for a plan to apply CPTED to urban regeneration for improvement in the safety and life quality of residents using AHP and Visualizing The Mental Map. For this, We selected four case areas in Busan and then analyzed the dead zones of CPTED programs by visualizing the mental maps and heat maps of residents for case districts. As a result of evaluating the priority of CPTED program, installation of CCTVs and streetlights for prevention of crimes was found to be the most important elements. Result of analyzing mental map, the existing crime prevention facilities and CPTED programs were found to have resolved most of physical disorder. However, it showed that, for psychological factors which the residents feel such as social disorder, a number of dead zones exist.
