Aside from its numerous beneficial impacts, the Industrial Revolution has also resulted in environmental issues and the unchecked expansion of urban populations. The allure of enhanced employment prospects, educational opportunities, and improved access to healthcare facilities, particularly in urban areas, has emerged as a compelling incentive for individuals residing in rural regions, prompting a surge in migration towards cities. The influx of people moving to metropolitan areas has resulted in the unchecked expansion of cities and the emergence of detrimental urban settings. Slums and haphazard urbanization are tangible illustrations of detrimental urban environments. Urban planners, architects, and researchers in related fields are studying the urban quality of life to address the problems caused by migration and unplanned urbanization. They aim to identify and improve these issues, as well as to prepare for potential future threats. The study's objective is to assess the urban quality of life in the Huzur Neighborhood. This area has experienced distorted urbanization due to migration in the outskirts of the Inegöl district of Bursa. The neighbourhood has developed primarily due to the furniture industry. The evaluation will be based on the opinions of residents living in the Huzur Neighborhood and on-site observations of the physical environment. Physical environment observation pertains to examining the living environment and public amenities in the local community. The in-depth interview consisted of 18 questions categorized under demographic structure, accessibility and transportation, satisfaction and feeling of belonging, security, expectation, and environment.
