Comparative Study of the Traditional Urbanism with the Modern One(Case Study of the New City Of Immigrants and Shāzand City)

Problem statement:

 In recent years, the metropolitan population has increased due to the migration, so new cities have been built with the goals such as reducing the metropolitan populations, developing the employment, and so on.

The purpose of this study was to compare the rate of success of the traditional and modern cities in the economic and social contexts and these factors were used for the success of both the mentioned cities.

The research method in this study was comparative and based on the analytical methods. Questionnaire was used to collect the required information and it was completed using the random sampling. Cronbach's alpha coefficient was calculated (0.858). The research population consisted of 117571 people in Shāzand city and 20346 people in the new city of immigrants. The selected sample size was calculated using Cochran formula as 383 and 377, respectively.

To compare the level of the satisfaction of the citizens with the two-sample t-test and the Levon-2 test, Shāzand city with the mean of 13.41 had lower satisfaction compared to the new city of immigrants with the mean of 16.25. In this regard, the t-test with a value of -0.473 and a significance level of 0.000 rejected the null hypothesis and the inequality of variances of the two cities was confirmed. Accordingly, the mean of the two cities had a significant difference (2.84). Finally, using multiple regression analysis, the analytical model was calculated using the standardized coefficients of each criterion in the two cities.

The results showed that the citizens of Shāzand and the new city of immigrants have believed that the success of the new city in terms of the economic status such as employment and its operating system in the urban self-sufficiency was more than Shāzand.
