For data analysis methods, statistical methods and graphic statistics analysis, Geographical Information System T regression tools were used. Geographical weighting (GWR) and SPSS were used to analyze the related data in line with the relationship between theft crimes and other components and to identify crime patterns of theft of second homes in Chalus city. In order to compare each of the indicators in different localities. In Chalus city, one-sample T-test was used.
