Evidence snapshot for Lima
Lima Cómo Vamos — a Long-Running Citizen Data Observatory for Urban Quality of Life shows that residents of Metropolitan Lima report declining satisfaction across most dimensions of urban quality of life. Between 2010 and 2019, air-quality satisfaction fell by 6.5 percentage points and green-space satisfaction roughly halved, with lower-income residents experiencing steeper declines than higher-income residents. In the most recent survey, 87% of respondents expressed dissatisfaction with citizen security. The evidence demonstrates trends in resident perceptions but does not quantify underlying conditions or establish causal drivers of these declines.
