Abstract

The community environment is an important factor affecting people's residential relocation; however, existing literature has primarily focused on the objective aspects of the community environment, with less emphasis on residents' perception of it.
To address this research gap, we selected 74 typical communities and collected 1,568 questionnaires across Guangzhou. We employed factor analysis to capture participants' community environmental perception and used binary logistic regression to analyze the association between independent and dependent variables.
The results show that: (1) There is a significant association between age, household registration, and participants' residential relocation intention; (2) Community environmental perception can be summarized into three aspects: environmental disorder perception, community attachment, and satisfaction, all of which are significantly associated with participants' residential relocation intention; and (3) There is a positive association between perception of a disorderly environment and residents' intention to relocation, and a negative association between community attachment and satisfaction and residents' intention to relocation.
This research is highly significant for enhancing our understanding of factors influencing people's residential relocation intention and for guiding community construction.
