In this study, in order to implement the statistical analysis of 50 samples of randomly selected blocks and on the development map of Tabriz city blocks (according to positive and negative indicators and normalizing them in terms of development) is divided into five categories, placed to be assessed the accuracy of each of these analyzes should. The findings show that samples taken from both classical and statistical methods of are equal spatial clustering aand the maximum number of blocks to be allocated , includes 23 blocks, Clustering blocks that differ only by a cluster are sorted of 21 blocks. Only 6 blocks sampled in clusters that have two different floors, is located.
