AbstractGentrification‐induced displacement entails a process of disrupting the inhabitants' ties to their localities. This study investigates the evolving neighbourhood attachment of resettled residents after gentrification‐induced displacement in the Chinese context. Using mixed methods, it comprehensively examines the behavioural and cognitive–affective changes in neighbourhood attachment of two groups of work‐unit residents in Chengdu, China—those resettled in situ and those out‐migrated due to gentrification. The study reveals mixed changes in the multidimensional neighbourhood attachment for both groups postdisplacement. Re‐establishing this attachment hinges upon an intricate interplay between residents' adaptive behaviours and their cognitive and emotional connections with the new places. While residents who remain within the gentrified area possess potential for rebuilding neighbourhood bonds, those relocated away from the original site experience feelings of placelessness. Furthermore, the physical environment influences residents' capacity to reconstruct functional dependencies on new surroundings, while the social environment is pivotal in shaping individuals' sense of belonging and identity postdisplacement. Finally, multiscalar contextual factors at the individual, neighbourhood, and city levels are fundamental to varying postdisplacement experiences across regions and social groups. This study enhances comprehension of the intricacies and diversities in postdisplacement experiences among resettled residents across various contexts.

The coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic has stimulated intensive research interest in its transmission pathways and infection factors, e.g., socioeconomic and demographic characteristics, climatology, baseline health conditions or pre-existing diseases, and government policies. Meanwhile, some empirical studies suggested that built environment attributes may be associated with the transmission mechanism and infection risk of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). However, no review has been conducted to explore the effect of built environment characteristics on the infection risk. This research gap prevents government officials and urban planners from creating effective urban design guidelines to contain SARS-CoV-2 infections and face future pandemic challenges. This review summarizes evidence from 25 empirical studies and provides an overview of the effect of built environment on SARS-CoV-2 infection risk. Virus infection risk was positively associated with the density of commercial facilities, roads, and schools and with public transit accessibility, whereas it was negatively associated with the availability of green spaces. This review recommends several directions for future studies, namely using longitudinal research design and individual-level data, considering multilevel factors and extending to diversified geographic areas.
