  • This study aims to identify the risk factors that influence criminal victimisation and endeavour to manage the recognised risk factors to control and prevent criminal manipulation or reduce the likely impact characteristics. If it can be well determined with sufficient specificity that people with specific characteristics are more prone than others to become crime victims and that such crimes are bound to occur at particular spots than others, attempts to control and prevent such crimes could be more helpful. That way, individuals would be made to understand when the crime risks are most pronounced. According to lifestyle exposure theory, the crime risk is influenced by functional opportunities for crime, local environments and associated exposure to criminal threats in society. Based on situational crime prevention theory, this study aims to determine why the offender's decisions to commit a crime are influenced more by the immediate situation than by considering possible detection and punishment. Authorities have not adequately recognised their rights and needs as victims of those harms. This study adopted a cross-sectional survey design. This method lets the scholar get data from several sets of populations simultaneously. In this study, the focus is on reducing victimisation through improving individual personal security. Towards this end, the researcher examined the role played by particular persons in victimisation. The study examined these relationships using samples of common area residents (n = 210), key informants (n = 45) and 145 members of focused group discussions. The findings of this research are expected to provide data that helps inform the policymakers and the individuals who are the primary victims of criminal victimisation of the need for enhanced personal security to assist in crime risk management. Researchers investigated Kajiado County, located on the southern side of Nairobi, the capital of Kenya. (xsd:string)
