Abstract

The city is a living being that provides the connection between man and the environment, and is an arena for interaction between the two. In recent decades, the urban population has increased, which, along with its benefits, has also led to problems. Also, the capacity of cities, especially in the cities of developing countries, is not commensurate with the volume imposed on them, and as a result, more problems arise. Thus, on one hand, the growth of urban population in all urban neighborhoods, both old and organic, as well as new and designed neighborhoods, is increasing, and in turn has created new problems for urban communities and citizens; On the other hand, solving many urban problems on a smaller scale, such as in the neighborhood, can be achieved through basic neighborhood planning. As a result, due to the upward trend of urbanization, urban planners try to solve these problems and provide solutions and planning models for it such as participation processes from bottom to top to minimize adverse environmental effects and increase quality of life. The purpose of this study is to analyze the factors affecting the feasibility of neighborhood planning. The current study is an applied research and examines the issue with a mixed (quantitative-qualitative) approach. case study is Sangalaj neighborhood of Tehran. Methods such as data processing (observation, questionnaire) have been used. The sample size according to Nimen sampling method is 264 people.
