Neighbourhoods are the most-local communities of human habitat. Inhabitants sense that they intuitively realize what a ‘good neighbourhood’ mean, for their satisfaction, with the degree of neighbourly interactions; mutual support, gathering places, convenient and appealing environment, or in a ‘bad neighbourhood’, for dissatisfaction; danger, anti- social interaction, exclusiveness, isolation, inconvenience, and dereliction. In this paper, the inquiry into both architectural and environmental behaviour, is a growing body of qualitative, descriptive research, focusing on human responsiveness to a place, a neighbourhood. Particularly the study expresses neighbourhood as built environments, converging to the environmental experiences of residents. In response, they are the non-physical sensual component of built forms and spaces that refines the built environment inscribing a living quality into it. The study investigates the physical formation of the neighbourhood and it reveals the degree, of user satisfaction; to which the neighbourhood space is sensed from the viewpoint of inhabitant engagement.
