The residents of certain local authority housing estates suffer relatively high levels of victimization from crime. In addition, their residential environments may be vandalized and poorly maintained. A variety of initiatives going back to the 1970s have been employed to improve conditions on such estates, partly in the hope that the quality of community life will be improved and that crime levels may be reduced.
