Introduction
City growth and social-economical problems caused by industrial revolution and city revolution in the current century make the cities separated. The overgrowing of the cities has caused some problems such as over consuming the field، lack of enough facilities in cities، disconnection of cities. It also makes the old parts of the city ruined. As an environment for living، individuals in cities need to be supported by some standards which are called standards of life quality. In fact، studied by scientists in city science and other scientists in other different fields. life quality has a multi-dimensional and complicated conception which has been Old parts of the city in Aran and Bidgol such as other cities of Iran are consisted of organic or natural structure with complicated system based on movement such as narrow passing ways. Theoretical bases: “Residential Satisfactoryˮ theory is applied for becoming familiar with the structured characteristic of families and their residential structure which have some effects on their satisfaction. As residential satisfactory is part of general satisfactory in one’s life، it is the most important subject for studying. According to Closter، this concept is the “obvious gap between inhabitants᾿ needs and the real situation around them in their residential areaˮ. In other words، residential satisfactory means the experienced satisfaction of an individual or a member of a family from its residential area. This concept has multiple features and represents the satisfaction of the individual of their apartments، neighborhood and the area they live in and it is often used to evaluate their feelings of their apartments or houses they live in. Finally، this concept is a significant sign for their positive feelings toward their life quality. Evaluating the satisfaction rate of the residences is so sophisticated and depends on so many individual and non-individual factors. Life quality shows general socio-economical features of an environment in an area which can be used as a powerful mean to supervise and plan social improvement. In fact، this concept is also applied for evaluating the emotional and economical demands of families. Behavioral geography scientists believe that in cognitive plans، the upper socio-economical status has better imagination of cities and life areas; while those with low salary have limited plans and ideas for living. They also claim that socio-economical status such as age، gender، job، profession and level of education have impact on forming and imaging ideas in one’s mind.
