This study gathered residents' perceptual data to explore the variability of sense of place in coastal communities in Lagos, Nigeria. A questionnaire was administered to respondents from one in every 10 buildings using a systematic random sampling technique. Each respondent (preferably the oldest family member) was surveyed in the chosen residential buildings. In total, 265 questionnaires were completed and submitted for analysis. The findings revealed that residents' satisfaction levels with living in a coastal community were directly and positively proportional to the coastline's distance. In addition to this insight, the residents' satisfaction levels during the dry season differed significantly from that shown during the wet season. The results indicated a significant spatiotemporal relationship between satisfaction with safety, maintenance of streets, vehicular circulation, traffic density, and recreational facilities, altogether with a sense of place. It was established that sense of place was, at times, spatially heterogeneous and showed seasonal variability in coastal communities of Nigeria.

尼日利亚沿海社区地方感的变化

本研究收集了居民的感知数据,以探讨尼日利亚拉各斯沿海社区的地方感变化。使用系统随机抽样技术向每 10 座建筑物中的一个受访者发放问卷。每个受访者(最好是最年长的家庭成员)都在选定的住宅建筑中接受了调查。共完成265份问卷调查并提交分析。调查结果显示,居民对居住在沿海社区的满意度与海岸线的距离成正比。除了这种洞察力之外,旱季居民的满意度与雨季的满意度存在显着差异。结果表明,满意度与安全性之间存在显着的时空关系,维护街道、车辆流通、交通密度和娱乐设施,同时具有地方感。已经确定,地方感有时在空间上是异质的,并在尼日利亚沿海社区表现出季节性变化。
