Attractive object

An attractive object is urban object with a high appeal to potential criminals.

identification of attractive objects

An attractive object is characterised by the fact that it has perceived qualities that match the motives of potential perpetrators. This means that the actual characteristics of an object (for example, are there really objects of value inside the building?) are less relevant than the perceived characteristics (do potential perpetrators think that there are objects of value inside the building?).
