This study aims to identify and present an image of crime-prone centers and social anomalies at areas of Tabriz city. In this research, a combination of descriptive, analytical and comparative methods have been used. Professional Software of Crime Spatial Analysis in GIS environment, Variance and Covariance Statistical Methods and Toki Test, Clustering Test (the nearest neighbor index) and Interpolation Method were used for crime spatial pattern analyses in Tabriz city areas. Findings of the study indicated that the most important urban crime-prone centers of Tabriz city are in the regions 6, 4 and 10 which are of the most populated districts of the city with improper physical structure and lower controllability. According to the comparison of the means and their order, regions 2 and 3 obtained the least scores of social anomalies, respectively. To show the study variables distribution pattern, we used the nearest neighbor pattern, which is completely spread in all variables, considering distribution pattern model. Next, according to the findings of the field study we used interpolation model for zonation of the study variables in Tabriz city regions. Zonation of the variable of wickedness in Tabriz city had the most and the least densities in the regions 6, 4 and 10 and also, the regions 2, 1, and 8, correspondingly.
