Aims

Right to city is a concept, which seeks to involve and allocate the city to urban residents. This research investigates the validation of the right to the city through evaluating the indicators of the right to the city.

Methodology

This was a descriptive-analytical survey and the statistical population of the research included all citizens older-than-15-year-old in Ahwaz County in 2021. 375 people were sampled according to the Cochran's formula as a cluster from all the urban areas of Ahwaz. One-sample T-test and spatial statistics methods were used in geographical information system to analyze the results.

Findings

The right to the city was not validated in eight districts of Ahwaz metropolis. However, the investigations indicated that regions 2 and 8 had better status than other regions. In addition, using the general Moran's statistic, it was concluded that the data are spatially self-correlated and their distribution pattern is in cluster form, except for the decision-making index, which follows a random pattern.

Conclusion

The degree of validation of the right to the city is lower than the standard and desirable level, and the degree of enjoyment of the right to the city in Ahwaz metropolis is unbalanced.
