| description | A case of the rapid propensity of urbanization leading to skewed dynamics of metropolitan urban agglomeration (MUA) and its extent of complementarities with the socio-economic and socio-cultural well-being of the communities. Analyses of the dynamics and complementarities offer researchers a range of innovative opportunities to explore metropolitan livability variations. Presently, policymakers are more concerned about earmarking and augmenting livability as a basic yardstick for metropolitan management and decision-making. This yardstick shapes the settings of MUA loosely or compactly, forming a metropolis. The paper explores the dimensions of livability variations within a MUA based on an objective-subjective approach. The initial part of the paper explores the livability variations within an MUA based on Confirmatory Factor Analysis. Later, it validates the existing rural-urban dichotomy based on subjective attainments. The amalgamation of the objective-subjective approach will encourage future researchers to explore the livability variations and their potential within any MUAs globally. |
