    This paper deals with a variety of homogeneity properties in metric spaces; strongly locally homogeneity (SLH) and countable dense homogeneity (CDH) are central to them. Variations are imposed on SLH and CDH by considering the mapping (making the homogeneity) as an isometry or a homeomorphism with some special property. iso-SLH, iso-CDH, LSLH, and LCDH are thus defined. The author establishes the metric analogue to Bennett's theorem i.e. if a complete metric space is LSLH (iso-SLH) then it is LCDH (iso-CDH). He proves that every normed vector space is LSLH and every Banach space is LCDH and shows that a compact metric space is iso-homogeneous if and only if it is L-homogeneous. A number of standard examples of CDH, mostly from the Cantor set, are explored in the light of various types of metric homogeneity.
