Abstract :
Today, in various approaches to urban development, social capital has been emphasized as the main factor and necessary condition for the development of localities and poverty reduction. Hence, the study of social capital, especially in poorer neighborhoods, is essential. The purpose of this study was to analyze the status and relationship of social capital with physical environment sustainability in Zamzam poor district in order to obtain the necessary knowledge and provide appropriate strategies. The research method is descriptive-analytic. Data were collected by field method and by household questionnaire. The sample size was determined by Cochran method and equal to 250 households. Sampling was done by systematic random sampling. Measurement of social capital indicators and physical environment sustainability was performed using SAW model. The weight of the indicators was also obtained by the AHP group methodology and by asking 15 academic experts in related disciplines. Data analysis was done by descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation and multivariate regression. The findings showed that the total value of the social capital of Zamzam neighborhood is 32.2, which is moderate to high. The overall index of the sustainability of the physical environment is also 1.71, indicating low and inadequate status. Correlation coefficient between physical environment sustainability and social capital is 0.48 which is significant at level 0.05. The explanation coefficient also showed that more than 80% of the level of physical sustainability was due to social trust indicators, participation, solidarity and social network.
