The present study was conducted with the aim of analyzing the status of sustainable housing indicators in rural areas and its effects on rural development in Mohammadabad rural district of Hamoun township. The research method is descriptive-analytical, which was done with a survey approach. The statistical population includes two parts; villages and a family. For determining the number of sample villages, the personal estimation method was used to select ten sample villages. To select the 350 sample households the Cochran formula was applied. We also used questionnaire. In order to determine the reliability of the questionnaires, the Cronbach's alpha coefficient for the four sections of the questionnaire including (physical sustainability, social sustainability, economic sustainability and rural development) was obtained as 0/77, 0/84, 0/75 and %0/71, respectively, which indicates the appropriateness of the research tool. The findings showed that the average social dimension is 2/84, economic dimension is 2/28 and physical dimension is 2/46. As a result, sustainable housing indicators are in an unstable situation. The results of the sample t-test showed that the stability indicators of rural housing in three social, economic and physical dimensions are in an unstable state. The economic stability index is more unstable than other dimensions with a rate of (-25/82). Also, the results of regression coefficients test results from fitting the model for physical sustainability indicators (0/274), economic sustainability indicators (0/321) and social sustainability indicators (0/344) showed that the relationship between these indicators and rural development is positive and significant.
