Abstract:

Gated communities have emerged as significant features of contemporary urban landscapes, prompting extensive scholarly inquiry into their socio-economic, cultural, and environmental dimensions. This paper presents a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of gated community research to elucidate its interdisciplinary nature, global perspectives, institutional affiliations, and emerging areas of interest. Methodologically, a systematic search within the Scopus database yielded 471 relevant articles published between 1996 and May 2024. Analysis revealed a notable upward trend in publication volume, predominantly comprising peer-reviewed journal articles (73.7%), followed by book chapters (15.7%) and conference papers (4%). Interdisciplinary collaboration was evident, with Social Sciences (47.1%) leading disciplinary contributions, followed by Environmental Science (13.4%) and Engineering (9.9%). Top platforms for dissemination included Housing Studies, Cities, and Urban Studies. Global perspectives showcased contributions primarily from the United States, the United Kingdom, China, and Canada. Institutional analysis highlighted leading contributors such as The City University of New York and University College London. Top researchers included Blandy, Roitman, and Landman, among others. Emerging thematic clusters were visualized, indicating evolving research trajectories and areas of interest, from foundational concepts to niche explorations. This bibliometric analysis provides a roadmap for future research endeavors, emphasizing the need for interdisciplinary collaboration to address the multifaceted challenges and opportunities presented by gated communities in contemporary urban environments.
