The study used primary and secondary data. Both descriptive and inferential statistical techniques were used to analyze research questions that bother on urban liveability. Results of the analyses show that in the two urban centres the following are not in very good condition: neighborhood road quality, garbage collection, state of cleanliness, street light, state of security, pollution, water supply, drainage system, and power supply. Most of the residents are not satisfied with the state of liveability in Ago-Iwoye and Ijebu-Igbo towns. Statistical test result shows among others that there is no significant variation in the level of urban dwellers' satisfaction with their neighbourhood condition. In order to improve urban liveability in the two urban centres, government should provide all necessary infrastructural facilities and services. While roads are to be improved and maintained, electricity and water supply should be provided. Community associations should also be encouraged. They should be more involved in activities that will improve liveability in the urban centre. They should constitute themselves as pressure groups, working on the government to improve the liveability of the urban centre.展开更多
