“…Aspects of the neighborhood such as distance traveled to work, school, shopping, medical centers, and safety from accidents or crimes, are positively linked with residential satisfaction and housing quality (Abidin et al, 2019;Abdullah et al, 2020;Babalola et al, 2020;Mouratidis, 2020). Neighborhood characteristics of aesthetic quality, amount of greenery, land use, walkability, public transportation, degree of maintenance, safety and security, and access to services were found to be related with neighborhood satisfaction (Amérigo & Aragones, 1997;Adriaanse, 2007;Leslie & Cerin, 2008;Kooshali et al, 2015;Türkoğlu et al, 2019;Mouratidis & Yiannakou, 2022). Accordingly, satisfaction with these aspects of the neighborhood can be used to measure and assess neighborhood satisfaction (Danquah & Afram, 2014;Zhang & Lu, 2016;Borgoni et al, 2018;Osman et al, 2021;Ta et al, 2021).…”

Measuring residential satisfaction has recently been considered as an important guide for architects, policymakers, urban planners, housing analysts, and housing developers. This is also true in relation to gated residential developments or gated communities. This research aims to develop a model of residential satisfaction that could be of help in measuring and evaluating overall residential satisfaction and its different components in general and in the case of gated communities. An analytical review of the literature was conducted in order to theoretically develop the model proposed. The literature helped identify five main components of residential satisfaction. Three components were derived from the housing satisfaction literature: (1) satisfaction with the dwelling unit, (2) satisfaction with the neighborhood, and (3) satisfaction with the social life and the social environment. The other two were mainly inferred from the gated community literature to better adapt this particular case: (1) sense of safety and security and (2) satisfaction with access to services and mobility. The model, furthermore, emphasizes many aspects that also contribute to determining the level of residential satisfaction.

“…More green spaces mean more comfort, better mental health and finally inhabitants' satisfaction. 27,28 Due to the fact that everyone passes most of their times indoor, 29 green space inside the home must be taken into account more seriously. That is why the effect of plants in indoor environments has been widely studied.…”

Nowadays, people spend most of their times indoors; accordingly, plants are increasingly used in these environments, including residential areas, due to their psychological benefits and aesthetic values. However, there is little evidence on how to maximize the inhabitants' indoor greenery (IG) preferences. The present study analysed the preferences of 363 inhabitants of two residential complexes with 38% and 6% green space in Tabriz, Iran through investigating greenery quantity and physical characteristics of the plant by the use of a simulated photo questionnaire from the interior spaces of the home. Results suggest that the preferences are not the same in various parts of the home. In general, high greenery quantity and flowering plants are the most preferred and tall foliage plants with wide leaves are the least preferred. Moreover, the effect of green spaces in residential complexes on inhabitants' IG preferences was studied. Results show that there is a significant difference between inhabitants' preferences of the two complexes, in terms of ‘plant colour', ‘leaf size' and ‘plant type'. The obtained results of the research can be utilized for interior designers and landscape architects in order to increase the application of the green space in residential complexes.
