This article is based on the data and information of a survey on apartment-habitation (apartment residency) issues and problems in Karaj. We used three types and categories of theories in this research: ecological theories, synthesized theories and subcultural theories. The statistical society for this research all comprised apartment-habitants in ten zones of Karaj then, based on sampling formula, 2000 apartments were selected for study. Results of the descriptive analysis show that the number of issues and problems related to apartment-habitation in Karaj is relatively high and these issues and problems have a significant correlation with the variables of: number of units in an apartment building, age of apartment, type of possession in the apartment, rates of change-over in residents, neighborhood relations, population density, quality of physical structure, efficiency of rules of apartment-habitation and amount of traffic in the apartment building. In contrast, variables such as the unit area, level of facilities, knowing the rules of apartment-habitation, educational level, number of family members, ethnicity, past type of residency, gender and period of apartment-habitation do not have any significant relationship with the level of apartment-habitation (apartment residency) issues and problems. Results of multiple regression analysis and path analysis also show that population density (0/412), change of residents (0/355), amount of traffic in the apartment building (0/183), quality of physical structure (-0/150), efficiency of rules of apartment-habitation (-0/122) and neighborhood relations (-0/120) are all determining factors on the number of apartment-habitation (apartment residency) issues and problems. |
