Çalışma kapsamında ilçe sakinlerine yönelik anket uygulaması gerçekleştirilmiş, resmi kurum raporları ve istatistiklerinden yararlanılmıştır. Sonuç olarak bu çalışmamızda belirlenen kamu hizmetlerinin kentsel yaşanabilirlik üzerindeki etkileri değerlendirilmiştir.Anahtar Kelimeler: Yaşanabilirlik, Kamu Hizmetleri, Beylikdüzü, İstanbul.ABSTRACTThe city and society are complete each other.
