Urban Well-being

Urban well-being refers to the integral state of physical, mental, and social health of individuals in relation to the urban environment they inhabit. This concept integrates environmental, spatial, social, and perceptual factors, recognizing that the quality of urban design, access to nature, mobility, and social cohesion directly influence quality of life in the city.
