When immigrants move to a new city, they tend to develop distinct relationships
with the urban landscape, which in turn becomes the new setting of their routine-based
activities that evolve over time. Previous works in environmental psychology have quantitatively examined non-native residents’ development of sense of place towards their new
environment. In this paper, we introduce the spatial perspective into studying the sense of
place experienced by non-natives in an urban context. We study the person-place bonds,
relationships, and feelings cultivated by non-native residents living in the city of Lisbon
(Portugal) through an online map-based survey. Then, we carried out spatial analysis
aimed at distinguishing and visualizing the different facets of sense of place developed by
two participant groups: short-term residents and long-term residents. Results showed that
while short-term residents reported bonds with places, long-term residents’ senses of place
were more intense and broader throughout the city. The correlations, associations, and
relationships between participant groups and the dimensions of sense of place allowed us
to observe features and patterns that were previously described in the literature, although
adding the spatial lenses can potentially provide better insights for urban planning, community development, and inclusive policies. [-]
