Gated communities have emerged in the world for reasons such as increased fear of crime, security, prestige, desire to be different. In Turkey gated communities have emerged because of neoliberal policies that promotes high-income segment seeking prestige. Gated communities are constructed not only metropolitan cities such as Ankara, Istanbul, Izmir, but also gated communities have been constructed in Anatolia. Aydın is one of these cities. Gated communities in Aydın have a unique infrastructure. Gated communities in Aydın are based on the cooperative process that was widely established after 1950. In this study it is aimed to investigate whether there is a meaningful connection between the characteristics of Aydın and the gated communities. In order to determine the phenomenon of place in the city of Aydın, information about the place and the spirit of the place has been interpreted with a hermeneutic method and transferred to the table through Norberg Schulz (1976)'s work "Genius Loci: Towards a Phenomenology of Architecture". According to the table, the phenomenon of place is divided into phenomena as image, identity and meaning. The table was designed to analyze the place identity of the city of Aydın and the phenomenon of place.
