        According to the evidences and experiences, the developing of rural areas in proportion to their share and the status and functioning in the national economy have been badly neglected, and because of inattention to the role of geographical factors (Natural environment, social, economic,…) in the ductility and spatial arrangements and the development of rural settlements, despite efforts in the country, especially after the revolution, instability and underdevelopment in the rural areas is still visible in Iran. Accordingly, this study seeks to examine the development level of rural settlements in the central part of Iranshahr and the role of geographical factors in that, from the local residents' point of view. The investigated factors comprise natural environment, spatial, social and economic ones. The research is descriptive-analytic and the total rural settlements of the central part of Iranshahr are the population. 19 villages and 294 heads of households were selected as the sample size. The obtained data were analyzed and processed through statistical methods in SPSS software. The results revealed a low rate of rural development in the central part of Iranshahr, i.e., is below the theoretical average (with an average of 2.43), and most of factors (apart from natural disasters, family aspect and employment rates) have a logical and significant relationship with rural development. Among them, the effect of spatial location factors and then, the social factors is more highlighted. Therefore, the development of rural settlements in the study area requires a fundamental revision in policies and programs for rural development, and also having a specific look at the role of some geographical factors in the development process of rural settlements is needed.

        Management and Planning of spatial structure of the optimal distribution of human population regardless of natural features, particularly the possibility of geomorphology is Impossible. It also drawing the outlook & future development without considering the operation and potential and weaknesses of geographic areas has not a desirable effect. Khonj city with a total of 89 urban and rural settlements located in the southern part of the Fars province and the climate is dry and hot. The distribution of this city is affected by various factors. This study assessed geomorphic factors affecting the spatial layout of settlements in the khonj city.

The findings of the study suggest that the establishment and expansion of settlements of khonj city directly affected by geomorphology of the area especially topography, slope of the land, cultivation of the land and distance from the river and fault.

        The planning for the sustainable development of rural areas as a spatial is one of the subjects of physical and environmental socio-economic issues. Countries try to achieve to the goals of development in all physical and environmental socio-economic by mobilizing their capabilities and equipments its. Civil and Rural Development, is a fundamental step that improves the social, economic and cultural village that has certainly all-round development of rural areas, urban areas also can reach to needful impact and we will see all-round development in the community. Two things will happen if this matter be achieved, one is stabilization of  population and another is  reverse migration to the countryside's And in contrary if villages  are behaved unkindly,   the young, educated and capable people will leave the vulnerable and pristine environment of the village and will inhabit in the  fringes in big cities. Organization design space and rural settlements make it possible to have a comprehensive understanding of the region to see first and second causes of any socio-economic characteristics and be explained And the third as a comprehensive program in a ten-years time horizon of rural properties in the region predict and implementation mechanisms in order to achieve sustainable rural development to be traced. This Study is to investigate the role and organization design in the development of rural space and rural settlement in Ardebil. In this study, using cross - sectional and device experts emphasize the attitude of provinces, cities, part of the social dimensions - cultural, economic, functional - the statistical tests to investigate the role of environmental projects in the organization of space and rural settlements Wiki rural development and the need to review the implementation of the proposals made in these projects as well as the reasons for non-implementation proposals The design of the development budget constraints, lack of coordination agencies and organizations involved in rural development and lack of public participation can be named.

        Undoubtedly, the most important population problem in rural areas of all developing countries, including Iran, is population evacuation of rural settlements. With the assumption that the level of development depends on the permanence of the population of rural settlements, the present research investigates the comparative aspects of development between two groups of stable and unstable villages. The research method is descriptive-analytical with a comparative approach. The research tool is 380 household questionnaires in 41 sample villages in Mashhad city. Information was collected by documentary and survey methods. Sampling has been done by stratified method and the questionnaire contains questions that try to quantify the different dimensions of development in two groups of stable and unstable population villages in three dimensions and 62 indicators. Data analysis was done using inferential two-sample t and Yeoman-Whitney tests. The 20-year population balance of Mashhad city (65-85) shows that 74% of the rural settlements of the city with a negative population balance are immigrant-first and only 26% of the settlements with a positive population balance are receptive to immigration. A comparative study shows a higher level of development in the three economic, social and environmental dimensions in the population stable villages with 14.5, 21.4, 11.1 respectively compared to the demographically unstable villages with 13.3, 20.9, 9.1 respectively and in total the degree of development in the villages Stable population with 23.6 is higher than unstable population with 19.5. The results of this research can be used in development planning. Currently, most of the rural areas and settlements of the city are on the margins, this is the necessity of planning in order to reduce spatial imbalances in the rural areas of the city (between stable and unstable population villages) and efforts to improve the level of development in different dimensions in It reflects the low-population villages. most of the rural areas and settlements of the city are on the margins, this is the necessity of planning in order to reduce spatial imbalances in the rural areas of the city (between stable and unstable population villages) most of the rural areas and settlements of the Manuscript profile
