Abstract

Numerous studies consider public green spaces in cities to be privileged places for the socialization and interaction processes that are developed between people and nature. However, our work shows that people living in certain private areas, such as houses with courtyards in the historic quarter of Cordoba, may receive as many or more benefits in their courtyards, than if they visited other green spaces in the city. To develop this concept we used a qualitative methodology, focus groups, as well as quantitative methodology, face to face interviews. Research shows that private courtyards in the city of Cordoba are most commonly chosen green space for the owners to spend their free time, and that contact and care of these small spaces, all contribute to the owners and users level of satisfaction. This satisfaction is equal to or greater than the effect if they visited other urban green spaces
