“…Despite the differences in recreation use intensities and visitor activities between urban, suburban and backcountry settings, similar results regarding the proportion of copers among recreation area visitors and types of coping behaviors were gained [16,[30][31][32][33][34][35][36]. Thus, use density may be an incomplete explanation for the proportion of visitors with coping behaviors in response to crowding and types of coping behaviors employed.…”

“…Unfortunately, the concept of use displacement in response to crowding has rarely been explored in general [36], and for the urban context in particular, despite the high recreation use levels compared to backcountry areas. Arnberger and Brandenburg [16], for example, showed both spatial and temporal displacement caused by crowding for suburban national park visitors.…”

“…Outdoor recreation researchers [31][32][33][34][35][36][37] have focused on use displacement as one potential explanation for the consistently low relationship between visitor satisfaction and concurrent reports of crowding [10,26,32,34]. They found that coping behaviors can successfully lessen the impact of too many people and facilitate visits with a satisfying recreation experience.…”

“…A population survey [32], or a standardized survey across several green spaces [33], might address the effects of use displacement more accurately because they can better identify the number of users who completely displace from a recreational setting due to undesired social conditions. Therefore, the complete urban, and even suburban, green space network might be integrated into further research when comprehensively exploring the effects of coping mechanisms [36].…”

“…Temporal displacement takes place when visitors change the time of their visits. Research has identified the season, day, and time of day as temporal alternatives [33,35,36]. Activity displacement is defined as visitors changing their primary activity [34].…”

Public urban green spaces play an important role in urban sustainability. These places should provide high-quality recreation experiences for the urban residents. However, they are often overused. The Wienerberg area in the south of Vienna, Austria, was transformed from a waste disposal site into a natural recreation area. During the past years, intensive settlement densification processes have taken place, resulting in a doubling of the local population living within a few minutes walking distance. An on-site survey among green space visitors (N = 231) revealed that the majority of them considered the area to be overcrowded on Sundays/holidays and reported a perceived increase in visitor numbers during the past years. Visitors with more past experience, as well as those who have perceived an increase in visitor numbers during recent years, reported higher crowding perceptions. A significant proportion of them try to avoid these crowds, relying on behavioral coping strategies, such as inter-area displacement. While urban regeneration has provided an attractive recreation area, urban densification around the green space appears to have reduced its recreational quality. Monitoring recreation quality indicators, such as crowding perceptions, seems to be useful for sustainable urban green space management and city planning.

Past on-site experience was linked to the crowding perceptions and use displacement of 383 on-site visitors to the peri-urban Danube Floodplains National Park, Austria. Three visitor groups were determined according to their area experience: local residents from Vienna and rural communities, having the highest level of experience; regional visitors from the city and eastern Austria; and tourists from Austria and abroad with the lowest degree of experience. Crowding perceptions were significantly different across the user groups. More than 50% of local residents perceived the national park as crowded, whereas only 27% of regional visitors and 19% of tourists reported such an evaluation. Even among local residents and regional visitors, respondents with more on-site experience expressed a greater impression of a crowded park. Differences in crowding evaluations between local rural and urban residents and between regional rural and urban visitors were not found. For 27% of local residents and 15% of regional visitors, use levels were so unacceptable that they displaced temporally and spatially, whereas use displacement was relatively irrelevant for tourists. The use displacement strategies involved differ among the three user groups. Management implications were discussed, taking the specific situation of the small national park on the urban-rural fringe into consideration.
