Rural housing is a physical, social, economic, cultural and environmental phenomenon. Housing has always been linked to the livelihood and economic activity of the family and the village. Livelihood-oriented rural housing has tended to be identified with urban housing in recent years, and the share of livelihood-oriented housing has decreased. The purpose of the present study is to identify the challenges facing the development of livelihood-oriented housing. For this purpose, in the first stage, six townships from six provinces were selected by cluster method, and then 13 villages were selected based on different demographic and socio-economic spectrums. Using systematic random sampling, 332 questionnaires were completed. Field findings showed that the respondents agree more with the influence of structural intervening factors in the formation of livelihood-oriented housing than with human and social factors. Factor analysis also confirmed this issue. Therefore, it is suggested that while modifying the procedures and content of development plans and technical rules and regulations and defining financial support packages, the education of the new rural generation should also be on the agenda.
