摘要
城市中心人口减少以及城市面积向外部扩张严重影响了城市的自然生态环境,这是目前世界许多大城市如加拿大蒙特利尔面临的共同问题。限制城市向外部的扩展需要从城市中心的吸引力来平衡。本文采用数理统计和综合归纳方法,在蒙特利尔城市中心最受欢迎的社区之一Sainte-Marie进行了两次现场调查,以定量分析城市中心目前的吸引力。结果表明,目前本地住宅/服务业的中高档需求有所提高,对代表城市特征的一些变量进行相关性分析,认为人们在城市中心的吸引力和阻力的权衡中,不仅仅以"自由居住意志"为唯一选择依据,而是继续生活在Sainte-Marie。本文结论还认为,目前通过城市邻里的吸引力水平限制城市扩张仍然面临很大的挑战。
Current inner-city-1 depopulation coupled with significant peripheral expansions disrupting nature, are the rule in many of the world＇s large cities such as Montreal. Expansion needs to be balanced from the inner-city attraction perspective. To deal with that objective and following an inductive process in the scientific method, two field surveys were implemented in one of Montreal＇s inner-city most popular neighbourhoods（Sainte-Marie） for measuring its current attraction power. Results expose that current local residential housing/services improvement in terms of their medium to high needs/impedances-2 linear correlations to achieve it discourage people to continue living in Sainte-Marie on a ＂free will＂ basis. This report concludes that limiting city expansion at least through this inner-city neighbourhood＇s attraction level is still very much a myth.
