近年来,大多数先进的资本主义社会越来越重视规划系统,以发展更可持续的城市发展模式,从而制定了增加住宅密度的政策。虽然紧凑型城市方法的优点现在在政策界广泛传播,但问题仍然与紧凑型城市环境的“可持续性与宜居性”有关。在这方面,虽然公众可能支持可持续性原则,但有一种看法认为,高密度发展对个人生活质量造成的代价太大。结合定量和定性研究数据,本文评估了中心城市内高密度居住与邻里满意度之间的关系。调查结果显示,在许多情况下,受访者不满的原因并不是高密度本身,而是其他相关因素,如环境质量、噪音、缺乏社区参与、交通以及缺乏服务和设施。
Recent years have witnessed an increasing emphasis placed on planning systems in most advanced capitalist societies to develop a more sustainable urban development pattern, resulting in policies to increase residential densities. Although belief in the virtues of the compact city approach is now widespread among the policy community, questions remain relating to the ‘sustainability versus liveability’ implications of compact city environments. In this regard, while the public may support sustainability principles, there is a perception that high-density development poses too great a cost on individuals' quality of life. Combining both quantitative and qualitative research data, this paper evaluates the relationship between high-density living and neighbourhood satisfaction within the central city. Findings suggest that, in many instances, it is not high density per se that is the source of dissatisfaction for respondents, but rather other related factors such as environmental quality, noise, lack of community involvement, traffic and lack of services and facilities.
