**1. Introduction**

The planned green spaces are the most significant social spaces for people to interact on a daily basis and also considered as one of the sustainability indicator for maintaining the well being in residential Communities. The benefits of green space for wellbeing are extensively recognized and progressively more documented. Much of this work focus on the potential of natural environments to provide opportunities to enhance wellbeing in different ways:


• Social wellbeing through social integration, engagement and participation.

These residential communities should enable residents to have positive experiences through the allocation of diverse green environments, which lead to physical, mental happiness and healthy living. Such positive experiences affect their happiness level, which is an important component of well being thus leading to sustainable lives. The immediate ecological benefits of green spaces are reduction in the urban heat island effect, cleaner air, and reduced noise pollution, which have been shown to improve health-related quality of life, and reduce both morbidity and mortality. However, most of the residential communities when designed have been excessively focused on their economic and iconic value, while the importance of residents' experiences has been ignored in the living environment. On the other hand, the standards and bye-laws reflect variation in the provision of Green Spaces based on criterion like area and accessibility. Accessibility to Green Spaces is a complex concept, as it depends upon the age group and pace of mobility of the user, i.e. low mobility and high mobility. In terms of psychological comfort, the definition of accessibility changes from physical accessibility to visual accessibility (safe place for use) for few user groups. Conceptually this entire study propels the belief that the residential communities usually comprise of varied age user group and all of them have right to led a better quality of life. It can be possible only when they are accessible to green space and avail maximum perceived benefits.
