  2. The indirect economic impact (on the urban environment)such as effects on tourism, investments, consumption, trade, etc.).
  3. Budget effects of preventive security measures against crime and terrorism.

Money spent on national defense, airport security, and the police, for example, in an attempt to prevent or forestall future criminal and terrorist events. The economic impact of security threats are related to:
