Abstract

This study addressed the question of whether the community exists as a meaningful social entity in modern urban society by examining neighborhood participation patterns and degrees of neighborhood attachment in a revitalized neighborhood. The research examined the effects of informal networks and participation in local organizations on resident's neighborhood attachments. Differences were found between longterm residents and newcomers, and renovators and non-renovators. Long-term residents were integrated into the social network of the neighborhood. Long-term residents who were renovators were also active in neighborhood organizations. Newcomers, whether renovators or not, were not integrated into the local network but newcomer renovators were highly active in local organizations.
