Abstract :
Housing today is considered as one of the most basic human needs after food and clothing, and due to its economic nature, it is one of the main categories of urban and rural communities. With the increasing population growth and the development of urban life, the need for housing has also increased and the need for planning in this area is more prominent. One of the most effective tools for measuring the status, decision making and planning of housing is quantitative and qualitative indicators of housing. In this research, using these indices, we investigate the housing situation in Isfahan province and compare these cities with each other. The required data have been derived from the results of the general census of population and housing in Isfahan province in 2011 and the information obtained from the statistics center site. Eventually, by using TOPSIS technique, cities have been ranked in terms of level of development in the housing sector and the results have been analyzed using GIS software. Based on the results of the study, "Esfahan" ranked first as the most developed city and city of "Fereydoun Shahr" as the most deprived city and the other cities are located in a spectrum between them, then using the SWOT technique the internal factors were identified and some approaches for using the opportunities and overcoming the weaknesses were proposed.
