The study conducted interviews with the Gothenburg Police, Västra Götaland County Administrative Board, Gothenburg City, Stadsmissionen and Mikamottagningen. Field study was conducted in Rosenlund, an area in central Gothenburg. Maps have also been processed in ArcGIS. The results show that physical planning has a significant role in why street prostitution occurs in certain areas. The Rosenlund area which is the area in Gothenburg which is exposed to street prostitution was found to have the same characteristics as affected areas in the cities of Stockholm and Malmö. The affected area Rosenlund characterized by easily accessible to the area because of public transport but also have good road network. The area is centrally located and has no residences in the area, the Rosenlund area is characterized mainly by trade. This means that the area has little movement and activity in the evening and night time when businesses and shops are closed. Weaknesses in the area can probably be drawn back to the functionalistic planning, the separation of various social functions such as housing, trade and jobs.
