Abstract :
The metropolis of Tehran, as the capital, is facing many problems, and District Four, which is one of the most populous areas of Tehran, is currently unbalanced in terms of development among different areas. Discovering the relationship between these conditions and the situation of governance in the regions is a matter of research. The research was performed by descriptive-analytical method with survey strategy. The indicators were first obtained by Delphi method (DELPHI) and then distributed among two statistical communities of citizens and municipal managers. The results of calculations in the Geographic Information System (GIS) and spatial analysis showed that the areas that ranked better in terms of governance were better in terms of sustainable urban development (areas 1, 2 and 3) and the areas that ranked better. They were worse off in terms of good urban governance, and in terms of sustainable development, they are in a weaker position (areas 6 and 7), so there is a relationship between good urban governance and sustainable development in urban areas.
