Environmental sustainability and improving quality of life are the two agendas that are said to be fulfilled by mixed land uses. However, given the current practices of mixed land uses, there are certain aspects of quality of life that are compromised to avail certain benefits. Parameters of quality of life that are affected by physical living environment are taken from literature and are firstly segregated into positively affected or negatively affected by mixed land uses based on experts opinion and literature. They are next rated by people on a 7 point Likert scale based on ‘How important they think each parameter is in determining their quality of life’. These ratings are compared with ratings by experts based on ‘How much they think the parameter is affected by mixed land uses’. T-test comparison of both the ratings gave an overview of whether benefits of mixed land uses match with people’s expectations from their living environment.
