Peoples migration from the countryside to the cities has reorganized our movement pattern, and in our everyday lives, nature has been replaced by the city center. Research, on the other hand, shows that staying in natural areas brings a number of health benefits, both physically and mentally. Becuase of that, parks and green spaces have become increasingly noticed in today's society, especially during the Corona pandemic with its limited freedom of movement. Due to the health benefits of parks and green spaces, it is very important that people feel safe when staying in these areas. A group of people who statistically feel more insecure are women and older people. This study will focus on how older people experience security in parks and green areas. The purpose is mainly to find out which factors are perceived as safe and unsafe for older people, as well as how the experience of security affects their movement patterns. The collection of materials were made with the help of semi-structured interviews, and the results were analyzed on the basis of a thematic analysis. Initially, the respondents claim that they don’t feel any significant insecurity, but at the same time they adapt their everyday lives to avoid unsafe environments, which indicates a basic insecurity. The factors that affect the security experience are primarily linked to the need for control. The interviewees describe that they want control over the environment to feel safe. Among the most prominent factors are lighting, social presence and opportunity to orientate. In conclusion, it can also be pointed out that security is a clearly subjective experience, what is experienced as unsafe for one person does not have to be experienced in the same way by another person.
