Gated communities are the most popular residential pattern in the urban areas of China. However, along with the increasing population density in urban areas, this pattern may have negative influences on people's daily lives, such as traffic jams. To avoid the negative influences, the government has encouraged residents to open their gated communities; however, few positive actions have been taken. With this background, this study aims to explore the key factors in residents' willingness to open their gated communities. To start with, a total of 26 potential factors were identified based on a comprehensive literature review. Then, a questionnaire was designed and distributed to collect empirical data. Furthermore, logistic regression was employed to analyze the collected data. Based on the derived results, it was revealed that concerns are different between male and female residents. Male residents regarded "community safety" and "property management" as having a significant impact on their decision to open a gated community, while female residents paid more attention to the factor of "proprietary equity". The results of this study could provide valuable references that enable the government to better understand residents' underlying concerns and to make relevant policy decisions.
门禁社区是中国城市地区最受欢迎的住宅模式。然而，随着城市人口密度的增加，这种模式可能会对人们的日常生活产生负面影响，如交通拥堵。为了避免这些负面影响，政府鼓励居民开放门禁社区；然而，几乎没有采取积极的行动。基于此背景，本研究旨在探讨居民愿意开放门禁社区的关键因素。首先，基于全面的文献综述，共确定了 26 个潜在因素。然后，设计并分发了问卷以收集实证数据。此外，还采用逻辑回归分析了收集到的数据。根据得出的结果，发现男性和女性居民的关注点不同。男性居民认为“社区安全”和“物业管理”对他们开放门禁社区的决定有重大影响，而女性居民则更关注“专有权益”因素。本研究的结果可以为政府提供有价值的参考，使政府更好地了解居民的潜在关注点，并做出相关政策决策。
