Turkey has developed various policies for the problems caused by the unplanned urbanization process for many years. Urban transformation, which is at the forefront of these policies, to achieve these goals, practices must have a certain level of flexibility. As a matter of fact, each period produces its own urban policy and understanding of architecture. One of the remarkable examples of this understanding in recent years is resilient cities. Resilient cities are explanatory in terms of flexibility and capacity to adapt to changes in practices such as urban transformation, which have physical and social dangers and risks at various levels. In recent years, urban planning literature reveals that walkable neighborhoods are an important variable in creating resilient cities. In this study, walkability was evaluated in the context of the city's resilience and considered as a variable in supporting urban resilience. The study comparatively examines different residential areas that have undergone an urban transformation and not in the same neighborhood in terms of walkability and resilience. For this purpose, first of all, Eskisehir Karapinar Neighborhood, where the study was carried out, was observed in the context of walkability, and different areas of the neighborhood were photographed. Then, questions were asked to the participants regarding walkability in the context of distance, convenience, and basic needs. As a result of the study, it has been determined that the residents' expectations from walkability were left behind compared to other structural problems caused by the transformation in both residential areas undergoing urban transformation and the area that has not transformed. In addition, as a result of the interviews, it was concluded that drawing the framework of walkability is very important in creating guidelines for planning resilient cities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
