The main focus of the social town term is the human in the town. Referring to the geografical town term it isn't possible to find an unique defintion. It speaks of a settlement, "in that the inhabitants don't know eachother any longer."According to LOUIS HAMM the social town term is defined trough the existence of:
- Anonymity and superficiality (amount of population)
- absence of solidarity/constant competition (density of population)
- segmentation of population (heterogeneity of population)
Today according to WALTER HAMM the definition can be declared by the sentence: "The town becomes a universal way of life, all social phenomena are at the same time also phenomena of the town."
In this case town can be seen as a social habitat composed of social spaces.
