- 摘要：
The neighborhood unit promotes quality of life, community feeling, and well-being by providing facilities. Sharing the main facilities of the neighborhood with all residents can play an important role in the satisfaction of the neighborhood. When a school (as one of the facilities) is placed into the neighborhood context, it can affect environmental and social issues. Therefore, the neighborhood facilities and services would not purely increase all residents’ satisfaction, well-being and quality of neighborhood through its equal accessibility for all residents. This paper discusses how the quality of the neighborhood can be enhanced and promoted by the different characteristics of facilities like schools.
The research method is based on an analysis of the affective features of a primary school on social sustainability in the neighborhood. The research has been done by recording sample participants’ ideas. The questionnaires were administered to 285 participants from two neighborhoods (with neighborhood-school and non-neighborhood-school) in Kerman, Iran. Results confirm that important features of the neighborhood -school have a direct affect on the quality of the neighborhood. The comfort, safety and harmony were identified as the most important of the six presented factors.
