1. In my opinion the concept of “livability” has so many aspects, from physical characteristics of a place to the impact of these characteristics on people’s physical and psychological well-being, their social life and their moods. A livable environment facilitates people’s needs and purposes, encourages social interactions and social support. It is restorative and relaxing and puts the minimum risk on people’s health. 2.
