“…The space between the countryside and the city is very specific in terms of its functioning [9], so it is inaccurate to identify it as urban or rural, but it is good to perceive it as specific and unambiguously characteristic [10,11]. Very often, urban edges tend to be degraded due to strong development dynamics and territorial demands [12]. Suburbanisation is currently affecting almost all parts of the world, with problems, but the spatial structures and intensity of this process are different [13].…”

The aim of this article is to evaluate the impact of suburbanisation on the development of settlements with an emphasis on environmental aspects that need to be addressed in the process of extensive growth of municipalities in suburban regions. In the theoretical part, the article evaluates the processes of suburbanisation and their environmental impact. On a methodological level, municipalities in the suburban zone were first defined on the basis of driving distances. These municipalities were subjected to an analysis of the intensity of residential suburbanisation by calculating a multicriteria indicator from five selected criteria. In the second part of the analysis, a questionnaire survey of mayors was carried out in the particular municipalities. The responses were evaluated using the Likert scale method, and then statistically significant dependencies were sought among individual phenomena and environmental problems which need to be solved by the municipal management due to the growth of municipalities. It was found that the mayors consider changes in the landscape character to be among the most significant impacts of suburbanisation in the territory. A change in the rural character of municipalities because of the construction of urban-type houses is perceived as being very problematic. Another serious problem is the insufficient capacity of technical infrastructure such as sewerage and waste-water treatment. The costs of ensuring the quality of the environment and of public spaces, which are, in many cases, beyond the economic possibilities of municipalities, are also increasing significantly. The article also includes specifications of selected smart solutions and procedures that can help preserve the quality of the environment.

“…Habiter : une question paysagère et politique 8 À l'origine de cet axe il y a un constat : la dimension politique de l'action quotidienne des habitants sur leur(s) territoire(s) de vie est souvent sous-estimée, c'est-à-dire que la fabrique habitante du paysage tend à être « dépolitisée 5 » (Toublanc et Bonin, 2019). Souhaitant explorer les liens entre paysage quotidien et politique, nous avons alors incité dans l'appel à textes à passer par l'habiter.…”
