        Introduction and Aim:   According  to  the  concept  of  migration,  migrants  return  to  their native land to live due to various reasons (economic, social, cultural, etc.) can lead to the  phenomenon of counterurbanization. In Iran, counterurbanization of people is concerned to movements from big cities to small towns or to return from cities to rural  areas.  Because  migration  does  not  have  a  coherent  rule,  reasons  and motivations for  migration  are  diverse  and  yet  complementary.  Based  on  studies done  in  the  project  document  further  migration to  Tehran is  caused due  to economic  problems.  In  this  study,  the  role  of  economic  factors  in  shaping the phenomenon of counterurbanization of metropolitan Tehran has been investigated. The final purpose  of  this  research  is  to  identify  and  evaluate  those  economic factors that motivate people in Tehran to migrate to smaller cities or villages. Method: the method of this research is the correlation description and it is  practical. Using a  questionnaire is  the Method  of  data  collection.  The  research sample is of men and women living in metropolitan Tehran and sample size of 384 were determined based on the Cochran formula. Results: the results suggest that Administrative infrastructure and amenities factors in  the Tehran Metropolis do  have affect counterurbanization, and the  first  factor has more impact than the latter one. The analysis also shows that by increasing the level  of  these  factors,  the  possibility  of counterurbanization  movements  will increase up to 16 percent, which is a significant amount at this time.
