This study aims to identify factors and provide strategies for creating a livelier and more desirable city for the residents of Pol-e Dokhtar. The study is applied in purpose and descriptive-analytical in method. The statistical population consists of the local inhabitants and urban residents of Pol-e Dokhtar. Using a simple random sampling method, a sample of 382 residents of the city was selected. To collect data and information, structured questionnaires and interviews were used, considering the models and research goals. For data analysis, a logistic regression model (LM Newton–Markard–Rafson method) was employed in IBM SPSS (note: ensure correct software name; if you meant EVIEWS, adjust accordingly) and the RADAR model was applied. The results indicate that among seven broad factors, at a significance level of 0.001, the environmental factor (impact coefficient 0.243), the ecological factor (0.249), the visual factor (0.206), the cognitive/mental factor (0.142), and the political-institutional factor (0.141) have the strongest associations and effects on the liveliness/vitality of citizens in the urban spaces of Pol-e Dokhtar. The results for the variables also showed that walkability in the city and recreational and leisure spaces, the pleasant/attractive surroundings and landscape of the neighborhood and the city, urban green spaces and green and vibrant neighborhoods within the urban space, residents’ adequate access to clean and green spaces, and the presence of appropriate urban furniture were the most important variables affecting urban liveliness in Pol-e Dokhtar. The study on strategies to enhance liveliness also showed that, among the 15 identified strategies, the five most important approaches for revitalizing urban spaces for cultural use, encouraging private sector investment, increasing security and residents’ sense of belonging, designing green pedestrian zones with urban furniture, and developing linear green spaces along the Kiskan River are the key strategies for boosting the liveliness of Pol-e Dokhtar.
