The housing sector, as one of the most important parts of a society's development and a basic human need, plays a vital role in improving the quality of life satisfaction. Every community has formed its housing sector based on its economic, social and cultural needs, possibilities, and limits. This analytic-descriptive study, as an applied research, aims to assess the development of the Counties of Ardebil province and focus on the availability of quality housing indicators. For explaining the quality of housing in the Counties of Ardebil province, a series of available data in the statistic center and the County site is used. Finally, to determine the final score and rank of possessing the housing quality indicators and to weighing on the indices, the ELECTRE and the AHP (Based on 20 experts specializing in housing) model were used, respectively. The counties of Ardabil province categorized in the five level according to qualitative indexes of housing which Ardabil is determined (The final score of the ELECTRE 4) as developed countiy and Parsabad, Namin, and nir (The final score of the ELECTRE 3) as a developing counties, Khalkhal, and Sarein (The final score of the ELECTRE 2) as Moderate development counties, Bilehsavar and Meshginshahr (The final score of the ELECTRE 1) as less developed counties, and Kosar and Germy (The final score of the ELECTRE 0) as undeveloped counties. According to Pearson correlation, there is not any significant relation among housing quality, urbanization percent and distance to province capital-Ardabil.
