The concept of gated communities was born in the United States of America in 1970s. It emerged as a part of transition to postindustrial era. After the modernization period, industrial cities were still facing rapid population growth. Consequently, business and residential areas in the cities continued to evolve and take new forms. As gated communities has offered new understanding of life, security, and status, the phenomenon rapidly spread in Europe in 1980s.

To Istanbul, the idea of gated communities was introduced in 1980s. This process was basically a result of globalization and neoliberal economy approaches. Being cultural and economic center of Turkey, Istanbul holds great value in terms of social and economic investments. Following the neoliberal economic trend, Istanbul attracted big amount of labor. Consequently, rising demands of housing and business areas invigorated the real estate market in Istanbul. As a result of the trends of global market, a variety of gated communities were built in Istanbul.

In this research, the social-cultural reasons of preferences to live in the gated communities and their impacts on life in the Istanbul will be studied. The main objective is to analyze the collective behaviors and personal experiences of the residents and to explore how these changed after the residents had started to live in the gated communities.

As regards sources and methodology, the case study approach will be applied on the example of a particular gated community in Istanbul, in which surveys and interviews will be employed. In addition, comparison of the quantitative data taken from the Turkish National Statistic Agency will be used to demonstrate the process of the making of gated communities in Istanbul.
