Abstract

Today, one of the basic needs of metropolises is providing housing for people. The right to adequate housing is classified as a fundamental social need, and the housing sector is considered one of the main requirements of urban planning. Cities with poor housing features deteriorate the life quality of their residents.. The main goal of this research is to investigate the spatial quality of housing indicators in Tabriz metropolis and provide a comprehensive quality picture of housing for different residential areas and blocks in an attempt to determine housing priority. In this applied research, a descriptive-analytical method was employed. The data collection tools consisted of document analysis and field studies. The data on housing evaluation indicators were extracted from the statistical blocks of 2016 in Tabriz. To evaluate and analyze the spatial quality of housing in Tabriz, the fuzzy AHP model was adopted. According to the output of zoning maps and the fuzzy AHP model as well as the indicators of housing area, quality of materials, net population density, quality of building (type of structure), density of people in a residential unit (household coefficient), density of households in a residential unit (household size), shortage of residential units and percentage of demolished houses, it was found that 32.42% of the residential blocks in Tabriz are desirable, 38% are relatively desirable, 20% are undesirable and 55.9% are absolutely undesirable. The analysis of the output of multi-criteria decision-making models revealed that the quality of the housing space varies in different districts of Tabriz. According to the results, in terms of housing spatial quality indicators, districts 10, 1, and 4 are in an undesirable condition, and districts 5, 2, and 8 have a relatively favorable condition.
