Urban space residents’ behaviors vary by employment status and group approval

Evidence

Whether one, two, or all three of these characteristics are exhibited to a greater or lesser degree, depends on a number of additional factors. These include such matters as whether the resident is an employee or a colonizer; whether he becomes a resident entirely on his own, or as part of a group; and whether the exhibition of the characteristic depends upon the support or tacit approval of others-residents, patrons, customers, or first-timers. — Lyn H.
