Given that, the aim of this article is to reviewtransit oriented development evaluation methods. Some of the most important benefits of the research results are; better understanding of the subject of TOD evaluation, recognition of literature related to TOD evaluation, the importance of the evaluation phase in the successful implementation of TOD process. There is a variety of TOD evaluation methods, have been conducted with different perspectives with the aim of evaluation of station areas as TOD and Non-TOD. In this regard, the important feature of this article is to help to identify non-functional methods in the TOD evaluation phase, which prevents cost and time.
