6. Conclusions
- (1)
- The degree of commercialization in historic districts follows an inverted U-shaped relationship with residents’ SWB (SWB). On one hand, excessive commercialization can lead to disruptions in residents’ daily lives due to tourism activities, thereby offsetting the positive social impacts of housing repairs and other social welfare projects. On the other hand, the lack of government guidance and public financial support, with community development entirely driven by residents, makes it difficult to complete infrastructure upgrades in historic districts, leaving residents living in deteriorating housing and outdated facilities. Therefore, maintaining a delicate balance between cultural heritage conservation and reuse, and the improvement of residents’ quality of life, is key to maximizing local residents’ well-being.
- (2)
- Non-physical planning measures, such as community participation and community planning service, may have a greater impact on residents’ SWB than physical measures. This is partly because, within the current cultural heritage conservation system in China, governments, and experts dominate the “elite heritage discourse”. In contrast, the “local heritage discourse” of the vulnerable original residents is weaker. As a result, cultural heritage planning tends to adopt culturally- and economically-driven revitalization strategies, often neglecting the sustainable development of the heritage areas and their surrounding communities. Furthermore, due to the complex ownership of housing in historic districts, projects like housing maintenance require residents and the government to build trust and co-invest.
