Basic and goal:

 Sustainable housing is an important part of rural development and therefore it is important to study and address it. Accordingly, the aim of this study is to investigate the factors affecting the development of sustainable housing in the village of Serno Alia in Kermanshah province.

The research method is descriptive and practical. A questionnaire was used to collect information. SPSS software was used for data analysis. The reliability of the research tool was 0.84 using Cronbach's alpha. The validity of the research tool was studied through experts in geography, rural planning and rural development, and environmentalists. The sample size was calculated using Cochran's formula of 110 people and systematic random sampling was used.

Spearman's correlation analysis revealed that structural and functional dimensions affect rural housing and the results of regression show that among these two dimensions, functional dimension (with beta value of 0.72) has the most role in rural housing sustainability

In the context of rural housing structure, economic variables are of great importance to paying attention to lending for improvement of rural housing. In the functional dimension, animal waste and waste at the village level are an important problem. Also, the lack of attention to the native and local fabric and the urbanization of villages and dwellings are among the worries.
