近年鄉村再發展的途徑，朝向鄉村觀光、都市新移居、以及精緻農漁業的方向。美濃因特有的客家文化資源、優美的田園景緻，以及交通便利性，帶動鄉村旅遊發展，也成為都市移居人口的首選地。然都市人口移居至美濃，農地別墅成為新環境地景，也逐漸改變美濃的地區環境和社會關係。本研究透過實地訪談和問卷調查方法，解析農地別墅對美濃地方發展的衝擊與影響。結果指出，在地居民認知農地別墅和都市移居人口有增加趨勢，對鄉村地景、農作經濟和社會互動也帶來衝擊。現階段，居民仍以多元價值和溫和友善態度面對，但增加農村別墅建築形式與環境的融合，以及強化新舊住民的互動關係，是美濃轉型過程中值得關注的要素。

Meinong, located in Kaohsiung city, owns Hakka’s cultural resources, beautiful pastoral scenery, and convenient transportation and has become a destination of rural tourism and urban population emigrated in Kaohsiung metropolitan. However, the new immigration is gradually reforming a new landscape constructed by farmland villas and causes a significant social change. This study aims to discuss views of local residents on impacts of farmland villa in Meinong through field interviews and questionnaire survey. The result points out that local resident aware increasing trend of farmland villas and new immigrants, which apparently presented impacts on rural landscape, agricultural economy and social interaction. Although the residents still give a positive and friendly response for such changes, issues of farmland building integrated to the environment and new relationships between old and new residents should be highlighted in Meinong’s new development.
