| Sumario: | The urbanization process of Brazilian cities has been marked, historically, by socio-spatial inequality. Spatial segregation occurs mainly in the housing field, in that social housing programs are placed in areas devoiding of infrastructure and urban services. The purpose of this study was to investigate how the socio-spatial segregation issue, defined in terms of location, connectivity, and access to urban equipment and infrastructure, influences the urban quality and the resident site perception. Thus, the study was conducted in three social housing projects in Indaiatuba (SP), launched on different urban development policies. In order to contextualize the case studies, a review of the Indaiatuba master plans was made, focused on zoning and social housing policies. In this research, post-occupancy evaluation (POE) techniques were used, applying structured questionnaires in the form of in-person interviews, as well as, in situ surveys using pictures, in order to measure the dwellers’ satisfaction level in the aspects of location and connectivity. The paper concludes that the residents’ vision for their neighborhood is influenced by the development of urban social activities and the availability of public spaces for that practice, thus, issues related to connectivity play a key role to build this vision. As a contribution, this paper present a critical analysis of the POE results interlinked with the master plans guidelines, in order to benefit the further urban development strategies. |
