Description The importance of market’s location in the patronage and development cannot be over emphasised. This necessitates public perception in order to achieve balanced development that is convenience and comfortable to the marketers. This study examined the perception of public on relocation of wazobia market in Ogbomoso North Local Government area and the problems encountered in the new market. The study employed secondary and primary sources of data. A total number of 274 questionnaires were administered using random sampling technique to collect information for the study. The data were analysed with the aid of descriptive, correlation and regression techniques. The findings revealed that, educational status of the public have a great influence on the income level of the public which determine their perception on the relocation of the market. The income level has the potential to be explained by the educational status of the public. Besides, new market lacks some basic infrastructural facilities such as electricity, portable water and standard parking spaces. The authors are of the opinion that Ogbomoso North Local Government should be of assistance in making provision for necessary infrastructural facilities to ensure market’s environment that is comfortable for the marketers regardless of their educational and income level.
