Unsustainable urbanconstruction may solve the housing problem at first, but in the long run, it willbecome problematic because of the potential for vulnerability in urban contexts.The present article has tried to study and evaluate the stability of the physicaldevelopment structure of Bojnord city in the period of ۱۳۷۵-۱۳۹۱ by descriptiveanalyticalresearch method of applied studies. Eight indicators have been used tomeasure stability using urban spider diagram analysis method. According to thefindings, all indicators except the two indicators "plot dimensions" and"infrastructure per capita" index, have a significant share in the sustainability ofurban housing and have grown between ۱۳۷۵ to ۱۳۹۰, so that the percentage ofphysical stability of housing in ۱۳۷۵, ۱۳۸۵ and ۱۳۹۰, it is equivalent to ۲۶, ۴۲ and۷۷%, respectively. Research results shows the instability of the two indicators ofaverage dimensions of the plot and per capita residential area, based on which it isnecessary to plan future housing with emphasis on these two.
