By using multivariate linear regression, this paper explores the main factors that determine the individual perception of security. This methodology is applied with a multilevel perspective that considers individual determinants (age, education, household income) and determinants regarding social relationships and the residential area of the individual. The results at variable level are consistent with previous evidence. Different variables related to social interaction within a neighborhood have impact on the sense of security. Particularly, trust and interaction among neighbors and the age of neighborhoods are important elements that determine the sense of security. The role played by physical disorder does not seem relevant. The presence of security programs at municipal level is important as it reveals the relevance of these initiatives. La percepción de seguridad de los habitantes en sus entornos residenciales más inmediatos se nutre de diversos factores tanto personales como del territorio y de las relaciones sociales entre vecinos. Este trabajo explora mediante el método estadístico de Regresión Lineal Multivariada los principales determinantes de la percepción individual de seguridad. Esta metodología se aplica con una perspectiva multinivel que considera el nivel de determinantes individuales (sexo, edad, años de educación, ingreso del hogar), como el nivel de determinantes de las relaciones sociales y del territorio residencial del individuo. Los resultados a nivel de variables individuales son coherentes con la evidencia previa. Diversas variables asociadas a la interacción social en el barrio inciden en la percepción de seguridad. En particular, confianza e interacción entre vecinos junto a la antigüedad de los barrios son relevantes en la determinación de la percepción de seguridad. El rol de las señales de desorden físico no parece relevante. La presencia de programas de seguridad ciudadana a nivel municipal en el territorio es significativa, indicando la relevancia de estas iniciativas en frenar el temor de las comunidades.
