Abstract: The growing need for urbanisation has continue to spur the need for the exploration of urban liveability and social exclusion. However, issues on social inclusivity are a matter of concern as people migrate to urban cities. This study is a bibliometric analysis highlighting the need for a comprehensive understanding of urban dynamics by revealing a growing body of research on the complex relationship between social exclusion and urban liveability. Scopus and Web of Science were the databases deployed for this review. The review offers insights into the changing conversation surrounding urban surroundings by identifying popular subjects and research approaches. While the analysis identified the advancements in the discipline, it also highlights understudied areas that need more research. These deficiencies include the requirement for interdisciplinary approaches, a wider range of viewpoints, more scholarly works in African countries, and thorough research to address the complexity present in urban environments. The results highlight the significance of inclusive urban development and contribute to existing knowledge by showcasing the potential problems related to social exclusion and urban liveability. This review concludes by synthesizing the body of knowledge, pointing out areas of research interest, and recommending further research into the field of urban studies.
