Abstract: This article discusses the individuals? relationship to the territory in the suburban areas. The way this link is built and evolves shows a spatial and social anchoring process, resulting in a narrowing of the living areas for certain trip purposes and the progressive use of behavioural norms (strong associative investment, ability to exploit «invisible» resources of the territory). The potential for development of an «other-mobility» are presented here in relation to these aspirations to the proximity that, far from being understood solely by the single measure of vehicles-per-kilometer, refers to the regionalization of the social bond and the processing by residents of the spatial context of a suburban daily resource.
