    Implementation of car-free neighbourhoods in medium-sized cities in Brazil, a case study in Florianópolis, Santa Catarina

    The aim of this study was to investigate the best conditions for the success of a car-free neighbourhood and the profile of the potential residents who would live in it. In this context, questionnaires were applied to a sample of the population of Florianópolis. We attempted to determine the profile of potential residents through a logistic regression. The gathered data were complemented by the literature review regarding the already existent car-free neighbourhoods that led to some adaptations required by the Brazilian context in relation to the European car-free neighbourhoods.
