When homeless live in the urban space, they often subvert the formal functions of that urban space. If their use disturbs the formal functions of the urban space, attempts to control and restrict their usage appear. At the same time, the actual working of spatial control depends on the responses of the homeless. This paper takes as an example of this pattern, four areas in a certain city (City A) and examines the relationships between the life of the homeless and spatial control in each area of the case study. It was found that (1) the content, strength, and agent of control differed in each area; (2) that the homeless try to avoid spatial control in various ways and continue their life; (3) ultimately, the homeless cannot be entirely free from spatial control.
