        Investigation of the urban order series in the most effective method of recognizing the organization of cities system. In this field, trying to find the optimum size of the city and its relationship with the urban system is very important. In Khuzestan Province, urbanity has increased extensively. In addition, the numbers of the cities and its urban population have increased unprecedentedly. This research aims to investigate and identify the order series and the urban spatial distribution in Khuzestan Province. The research methodology is descriptive-analytical method. It must be noted that it has a development-application approach and it has used softwares such as ArcGIS and Grafer to analyze the data. The results of this study show that in 1390, the population of 30 out of 61 cities of the province is less than 10 thousand. This shows a sharp rise in the number of very small cities in the province. Ahwaz has only 33.8 percent of the total population of the province. This shows that the urban order series in Khuzestan Province is inharmonic and unbalanced. According to the studies and investigations in 1390 in Khuzestan Province, the urban primacy is 3.29 percent. Manuscript profile
