Abstract As far as I am concerned, not at all, and I am going to show why! When most people hear the expression 'Smart City', they associate it with a future city where thousands of sensors are installed and connected with each other and the central computer-based unit. Other groups of people think of the smart city as represented by high quality and future visionary high-end instruments and electric cars. However, the smart city is based on an interaction between city systems, public safety, health, education, and citizens' services. This cooperation makes the city a healthier, safer place for people to live in. Nowadays, public safety is of paramount importance like energy management, smart transport, or building automation. In this article, I am going to describe how we can manage public safety by transforming the city environment in a proprietary way. I use the principles of CPTED (Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design) for redesigning the city environment.
