Neighbourhood liveability is a concept reflecting the perceived living conditions in a housing
area. Liveability depends, on the one hand, on the relationship between the demand and the supply on the
local services market, and – on the other hand – on the spatial structure of the neighbourhood. In this paper,
we combine those two aspects by asking the question: What physical forms are the most effective in providing quality of life and satisfying the everyday needs of citizens? We present the results of a social survey and mapping analysis conducted in 5 neighbourhoods in Poland representing big cities, medium-sized towns and suburbs. Each case study included opinions of both customers and services providers. The results show that there are particular spatial structures (streets, squares, passages) positively evaluated by each of the two groups, determining the neighbourhood liveability.
