Improving the urban livability status has become the core goal of urban development, and reasonable assessment of the urban livability status and impact is crucial. By combining an objective environment with residents’ subjective cognition, an artificial society (urban livability change artificial society; ULC-AS) is constructed. The ULC-AS includes four types of agents, namely, government, family, resident and safety facility management agency agents, and recognizes dynamic interaction among various agents and between agents and the environment. Taking the Futian District of Shenzhen as an example, this paper examines factors such as migrants, birth policies, and government investment. We simulate the interactions among resident satisfaction changes, relocation decision-making behavior and urban safety livability and analyze the change processes and development trends of urban safety livability under multiple scenarios. Our main result indicates that population change and investment construction are important factors affecting urban safety livability. At present, the population of the Futian District is saturated. Therefore, the government must assess the urban safety livability and increase investment in high-demand areas. Through this method, the goals of urban resource allocation optimization and coordinated urban development can be achieved.
