The objective of this research is to examine the role of decentralization from the city of Yazd in the balanced regional development of Yazd province. This study is applied in terms of its objective and descriptive-analytical in terms of its methodology. SPSS, TOPSIS, Rank-Size, and Moran's coefficient were used for data analysis. The results indicate that decentralization from the city of Yazd can play a significant role in the balanced regional development of Yazd province. As the provincial and major city, Yazd has attracted various advantages including economic, cultural, and social infrastructure, service centers, and administrative institutions. However, this concentration can lead to regional disparities, reduced employment opportunities and economic activities in other areas of the province, and increased urban pressures and problems. This has resulted in the concentration of resources and facilities in Yazd city while diminishing resources in other cities of the province. The urban population percentage of the province has increased from 66% in 1986 to 76%, 84%, and 82.6% in the years 1996, 2006, and 2016, respectively. This indicates a growing urban population in the province over these time periods. Overall, the results demonstrate that the development of cities in Yazd province is uneven, and tailored measures are necessary to prevent rural depopulation and migration, as well as to strengthen the development of cities and their associated indicators based on the specific conditions of each city and region.

This study has investigated the impact of physical-spatial, social and economic indicators on the realization of sustainable housing in the city of Sirjan. The type of alied research and its the study method was descriptive-analytical. 600 informants, specialists and experts formed the statistical population of this study that in which 230 people were selected as the sample size based on simple random sampling method using Morgan tableTable. 31 physical, social and economic components of housing in Sirjan were selected as dependent variables. The reliability of the questionnaire was confirmed by Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.832. In order to analyze the data, inferential statistical methods such as one-sample t-test and factor analysis were used. The results of physical and spatial indicators showed that the rate of retrofitting of existing buildings, the rate of improvement and renovation of worn and old structures, the level of safety in residential units as well as the quantity and quality of equipment have not been in a favorable condition. In this regard, this study with an innovative aroach has attempted to harmonize physical, social and economic indicators in order to develop strategies for achieving sustainable housing in the city of Sirjan.

The existence of a well-organized, rational, and functional hierarchy system in a geographical space has an important role in the appropriate function of the cities and residencies and also in the connection of the urban network with the rural residency network. Regarding the rupture and in coherence between these two sets, it is important to endeavor to make a hierarchic connection among the residencies. One of the strategies which can be effective in achieving the optimum residential space extension in regional scale is exploiting the space extension models and conforming them to region situations. Employing the descriptive-analytical research methods, the present article investigates the propounded theories in regional space extension and then introduces the ''Hilhorest centered expansion '' strategy as the appropriate pattern for region space extension. The central cities in regulating the residential system and in establishing a connection with small residencies has led to intended centralization of population, services, and investments in Tabriz and around it and finally the lack of space homogeneity and back wardens of other regions of East Azerbaijan, especially the rural areas.
