Description :
This article examines the interaction pretext through experiences of community in the urban neigh-bourhoodin Trondheim, Norway. By combining this concept with local activity, four community types are specified that may characterise different neighbourhoods and that may also exist in parallel at one place: the passing-by community, the tight community, the weak community, and the split community. By understanding how neighbourhoods develop socially in different ways, it may be possible to increase the probability of better community planning.
