摘要

The equitable distribution of public service facilities is critical to urban livability and social equity. Studies examining the difference in the facility accessibility of communities with different socioeconomic status (SES) in rapidly urbanized China, especially the comparative study based on 15-minute community life circles (15 min-CLC) are rare. Thus, using Nanjing as a case study, this study evaluates the accessibility of public service facilities within the 15 min-CLC of different SES communities based on multi-source data. The findings reveal that there were significant differences in facility accessibility among different SES communities in Nanjing. Communities with lower SES face obvious disadvantages and unfairness in accessing public services, especially health care services, education and transportation. For communities with lower SES, the density of the built environment is a key determinant of facility accessibility. Urban policymakers should appropriately tilt social resources toward vulnerable groups, increase the density and quality of facility construction in communities with low economic status, and promote social equity.
