The development of a problem-oriented, socially concerned applied urban geography has focused research attention on the quinjessential geographical problem-viz., the nature of the relationship between city dwellers and their urban environments. Most geographical research into this question has been based on objective measures of environmental quality. A complementary perspective focuses on the concept of urban liveability. This paper adopts an international, interdisciplinary perspective to identify the major issues in urban liveability research and to highlight those areas where urban geographers can make a particular contribution.
