-Usually, a Safety Audit starts with a group of residents, and possibly other community members, who meet and discuss spaces in their community that feel unsafe. Safety audit groups generally work best when members are diverse and therefore represent a variety of safety and security concerns (e.g. younger and older participants, disabled, different ethnic backgrounds). Unsafe spaces might include a shopping centre parking lot, a pathway between residences, a water source, or a public housing development. After the safety audit group has chosen an unsafe space, they go together to that space and note the factors or characteristics that they think make it unsafe.

-Safety audits encourage local and context-specific solutions to issues of insecurity, and promote partnerships as well as joint solutions between residents and their local governments. Moreover safety audits help to evaluate and identify features in a community with the goal to reduce crime and improve the resident's safety and the areas security in general.
