The purpose of this study was to compare the spatial distribution and characteristics of adolescent suicide risk in Busan by distinction and to understand the level of spatial accessibility of public counseling service institutions for prevention and intervention of adolescent suicide. A total of 108 youths living in Busan were extracted from the Korean Children and Youth Panel Survey 2010, and 11 districts were analyzed. Using QGIS 3.4 and R, the spatial distribution of suicide risk by region was visualized, the spatial autocorrelation of suicide risk was verified, and the nearest neighbor and cluster analysis were performed. The spatial relationship with adolescent suicide risk was identified by visualizing the distribution of each distinction among public counseling service organizations. The main results of the study are as follows. First, Saha-gu and Sasang-gu showed the highest suicide risk, and Geumjeong-gu and Dongrae-gu had the lowest suicide risk. Second, Haeundae-gu and Dongnae-gu showed the most positive perceptions of the local community. Third, Haeundae-gu and Nam-gu had the largest number of public counseling institutions for youth, while Saha-gu and Sasang-gu, which showed the highest suicide risk, had relatively low distribution of institutions.
