Abstract:

Neighborhood parks are an important part of open public spaces that are perceived as public realm and scenic comfort which promotes social and cultural interaction and preserves the natural environment. These breathing spaces within the neighborhoods play a vital role in ensuring that residents have a good quality of life. Despite knowing the unparalleled role that open public spaces play in residential neighborhoods, they are often threatened by rapid urban growth due to which the size of the urban green and open space is decreasing drastically. To ensure sustainable cities and communities, g

Abstract:

Neighborhoods and mass housings are important human living environments. Especially in residential open and green spaces, people spend time and interact with each other. The purpose of this study is to investigate and analyze user satisfaction of green spaces in line with quality criteria on mass housing and neighborhood scales. Mass housing and neighborhood samples have been identified to ensure comparison in two sample groups. Within the scope of the study, total 768 surveys were conducted to determine the satisfactions, opinions and suggestions of the users regarding open and green spaces i

Abstract:

Urban green spaces are essential for public health and well-being, emphasizing the importance of their equitable distribution in urban development. Despite efforts to expand green spaces, however, significant disparities persist between their spatial and social allocation. This study classified urban green spaces into community parks, urban parks, and country parks, and examined the relationship of their green coverage and park accessibility to neighborhood property prices in Hangzhou. We then assessed the urban green space equity using Gini coefficients. We found that (1) urban green space in

Abstract Studying the impacts of neighborhoods on health exposures and outcomes has seen increased attention over the last few decades. Neighborhoods can describe where individuals work, live, and recreate in granular detail, facilitating our understanding of activity spaces throughout the lifecourse.

Abstract:

Access to green spaces is essential for promoting public health, reducing inequalities, and fostering urban resilience. This study evaluates the 3-30-300 indicator as a tool for assessing green space accessibility in Montreal, Canada. The framework sets three goals: every resident should see three trees from their home, live in a neighborhood with at least 30% tree canopy, and have a park or green space within 300 m. Using geospatial analysis, this study examines how well these criteria are met across Montreal’s neighborhoods and investigates disparities linked to socio-economic factors. The s

Previous research has shown that personal, neighborhood, and mobility characteristics could influence life satisfaction and loneliness of people and that exposure to public spaces, such as green spaces, may also affect the extent to which people feel lonely or satisfied with life.

Abstract:

Urban green areas are essential for the quality of life of people living in large cities. In Brazil, 84.7% of the population lives in cities; however, studies assessing urban tree cover distribution and population's accessibility to such spaces are scarce. We aim at assessing urban green areas’ distribution and accessibility in Rio de Janeiro City, according to places where people live in and to dominant economic classes in each neighborhood. In order to do so, 123 public areas larger than 5,000 m² were selected to the study, as well as the city's tree cover network. It was mainly done to anal

Urban green spaces play a role in mitigating environmental challenges and enhancing urban sustainability and resilience. The paper aims to assess the four regulating ecosystem services (carbon storage and sequestration, runoff control, and air pollutant removal) in ten neighborhood parks in Eugene, Oregon (USA). Using the I-Tree Eco model, the contribution of urban trees to ecosystem services supply is evaluated. Similarities and dissimilarities between the neighborhood parks are analyzed using Multidimensional Scaling (MDS). The major findings show significant variation in ecosystem service s

Abstract:

Advancements in remote sensing techniques and urban data analysis tools have enabled the successful monitoring and detection of green spaces in a city. This study aims to develop an index called the urban green accessibility (UGA) index, which measures people’s accessibility to green space and represents the citywide or local characteristics of the distribution pattern of green space. The index is defined as the sum of pedestrians’ accessibility to all vegetation points, which consists of the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) with integration and choice values from angular segment

To measure use frequency and satisfaction level differentials among neighborhood residents, gap analysis using paired samples t-test was performed to assess the differences between mean score ratings of expected (pre-use

Improving the equity of urban public green space is crucial for residents’ well-being and is a key objective in green space planning. While most existing studies focus primarily on the spatial distribution characteristics of green space resources, fewer explore the mechanisms influencing residents’ subjective perceptions and preferences. This study, based on a survey of 1419 residents in Hunan Province, constructs a structural equation model (SEM) to investigate the impact of the unequal distribution of urban public green space on residents’ happiness, mediated by social–psychological factors
