Answer:

b. a neighborhood with educational and residential properties  

Explanation:

Deviant place theory: The term "deviant place theory" is defined as a theory which states that an individual who encounters a great exposure to different dangerous places makes him or her more likely to experiencing or becoming the victim of a particular crime. For an individual to ignore or avoid becoming a victim of any specific crime he or she should avoid areas that are considered as bad or at high risk of getting involved in crimes.

In the question above, the factor that does not characterize a deviant place is a neighborhood with educational and residential properties.
