RT Journal Article SR Electronic A1 Koltai, Zoltán A1 Galambos-Tiszberger, Mónika T1 Assessment of the attractions of the residential place in Hungary JF Civilia YR 2014 VO 5 IS 1 SP 67 OP 84 DO 10.5507/civ.2014.006 UL https://civilia.upol.cz/artkey/civ-201401-0006.php AB The goal of measuring success in the territorial sense in our opinion is to assess the position of a given geographical unit as objectively as possible, and on this ground to look at what needs to be done for its development. This may serve as the basis of a development programme that is special but still flexibly modifiable, coordinated by the municipality, the non-governmental actors, the academic sphere and the economic entities; a programme that the local stakeholders know and support as well. Features of successful settlements may be quite varied, from flexibly modifiable economic structure through highly qualified labour force and favourable social structure right to the environment of the settlement. But what is the opinion of the people most concerned, the inhabitants of the settlements? How do they see the main advantages or disadvantages of their own environment?
