Abstract: This study identified and examined residents' socioeconomic and cultural characteristics of residents, examined the housing and neighborhood characteristics, and determined the factors influencing residents’ perceptions of privacy across selected public housing estates in Ibadan. This approach aimed to provide information that could enhance public housing design. The study population consisted of all household heads in the six public housing estates managed by the Oyo State Government. The sampling frame consisted of 1130 household heads, while a sample size of 565 household heads was selected for questionnaire administration using systematic random sampling, representing 50% of the sampling frame. The data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Factor analysis revealed that the factors influencing residents’ perceptions of privacy across selected public housing estates in Ibadan were wall building materials, housing social and physical characteristics, floor finishing material for available spaces, window types for available spaces, and available housing spaces, with percentages of variance of 7.99%, 7.43%, 7.27%, 5.52%, and 5.12%, respectively. The most significant factors influencing residents’ perception of privacy were wall and floor finishing materials and window type. The study concluded that residents’ perceptions of privacy were influenced more by housing characteristics.Abstract: This study identified and examined residents' socioeconomic and cultural characteristics of residents, examined the housing and neighborhood characteristics, and determined the factors influencing residents’ perceptions of privacy across selected public housing estates in Ibadan.
