  1. Urban Villages & Spatial Exclusion

  2. Urban Villages • An Urban Village is a distinctive residential district whose functional form and character is influenced by a particular community. • The creation of the urban village is an attempt to rediscover a lifestyle where interpersonal relationships beyond your immediate family are important in everyday life.

  3. Urban Villages are based on shared space or social organisation and interest. • Regionalisation of Sydney’s journey to work has established patterns of work, leisure and everyday activities which means that travel to the city is less necessary. • Urban Villages are best represented by the Multiple Nuclei Model.

  4. Outer suburbs of cities have lifestyle opportunities where it is possible to build houses on blocks of land. Increased job and social activities in the villages eliminate the need for residents to travel to the CBD for jobs or social activities which in turn makes the village independent of the CBD. • Examples of Urban Villages include: • Chinatown, • Brighton-Le Sands & • Ashmont. (Wagga) (Sydney)

  5. Spatial Exclusion • Spatial exclusion is the desire of the urban elite to protect their luxury lifestyles which results in limited spatial access and freedom of movement for urban dwellers. • Gated and Walled communities are communities which are only accessible to certain people and can range from resort style golf course estates to town house complex’s. • Currently 100,000 people in Australia and 16 million people in America live in gated or walled communities.

  6. Examples of Gated and Walled communities include: • Stone Creek Ranch (USA) • Macquarie Links (Sydney) • Jacksons Landing Development (Sydney) • Girraween Mews (Wagga) • Waterveiw Apartments (Wagga)
