Abstract
In an attempt to improve the understanding of the relationship between leisure participation, place belonging and subjective well-being, this study considers the enabling and constraining roles of locational advantages and disadvantages and personality with regard to recreational engagement. Using a mapping based questionnaire, residents of Amsterdam were surveyed about their life satisfaction, feelings of belonging in Amsterdam, and their leisure habits and locations. Collectively, the findings from this research suggest that the physical presence of amenities alone is too narrow of a focus for understanding their influence on the life satisfaction and place belonging of Amsterdam residents. Rather, satisfaction with how free time is spent and where activities occur are important factors to consider as part of the relationship between leisure and place belonging and/or subjective well-being.
