The performance of the building has been noticed in recent years, especially in the field of residential buildings. However, it is obvious that the evaluation systems are only in the design stage, and there is no important indicator to evaluate the real performance of the building quantitatively and qualitatively. Therefore, post-occupancy evaluation (POE) is an essential tool to measure whether buildings are designed to meet the needs of residents or not. Becasuse of this importance, the current study looks at which short-term, medium-term, and long-term residential complexes have the most satisfied residents based on POE components. Then, it looks at the overall satisfaction level of residential complexes with POE components. Additionally, it discusses which aspect of the POE is most significant to residents after residing in each of the time groups of residential complexes. This research is a variable-oriented comparative study. The size of the study sample in this research is 379 residents and the statistical population of the study was selected using the random cluster sampling method. The statistical method used in this research are regression model and confirmatory factor analysis. The result of the analysis showed that the overall satisfaction of all residents is equal to 0.41, which is equivalent to 41%. Also, the findings of the research indicate that the residents of short-term residential complexes have a higher level of residential satisfaction compared to long-term residential complexes. Meanwhile, the residential satisfaction of the residents of medium-term residential complexes was lower compared to the residents of long-term residential complexes. In other words, the residents of medium-term residential complexes had the lowest level of satisfaction compared to the two short-term and long-term groups.
