In contrast to this situation, international organizations' strategies for reduction of disaster is to create earthquake resilience communities that this issue requires an assessment of the resilience of the city against earthquakes & planning. Therefor, this study try to investigate the resilience of the ten zone in district 1 of Tehran against earthquake. The research method was descriptiveanalytic as well as applied type. In addition, ten main criteria were used to measure resilience of district 1 of Tehran in the form of 42 sub-criteria, which used the Prometheus & Gaia model to analyze the relevance of the criteria under the data analysis network analysis process.The results showed that zones 2, 7 & 8 have high resilience, Zones 3 & 4 have moderate resilience, Zones 10 have low resilience, & Zones 1, 5, 6 & 9 have very low earthquake resilience.In general, it can be concluded that zones the zones in the west of Tehran's one district are highly resilient, & those located in the central part, especially east of Tehran's one district, have little resilience against earthquakes.
