Abstract :
In order to intervene in urban contexts and localities, first, a sufficient level of knowledge must be created so that proper planning can be done in this way. The planning platform plays an important role. Identification of target areas for planning intervention is done in different ways, among which the indicators of inefficient urban context can be a suitable tool for this identification. The current research intends to investigate and analyze the neighborhoods of the 19th district of Tehran municipality and finally identify the priority neighborhoods for intervention. According to the objectives and the nature of the project, this research is of applied research type. The statistical population of the present research is specialists and experts in the field of urban planning, urban planning, urban management, university professors, elites and doctoral students and other people who somehow have knowledge and expertise about the subject under study. The sampling method in this research is purposeful and non-random. Since the exact size of the statistical population is not known precisely, the sample size has been considered until reaching the scientific saturation level and equal to 50 people. According to the findings of the research, it was found that the components of low quality of life with a final score of 0.333 and the component of deprivation with a final score of 0.297 are in the first and second ranks. In other words, according to experts, these two components show the inefficiency of urban tissues more than other components. In general, the results show that as you move from the east side of the 19th district of Tehran to the west side, the urban tissues show an inefficient situation. The three neighborhoods of North Khani Abad, Esfandiari, and North Shariati are in a better condition than other neighborhoods, and in contrast to the neighborhoods of Ali Abad, Ismail Abad, and Nemat Abad, they are in an unfavorable situation.
