Abstract

In the last few decades, the creeping of cities and the unplanned physical development of cities have imposed many positive and negative consequences on peri-urban settlements. In this regard, the current research aims to analyze the economic, socio-cultural and physical-spatial consequences of urban sprawl and the annexation of villages to the city in rural settlements around the city of Kerman. The current research is applied in terms of purpose and descriptive-analytical in terms of nature and method. The collection of information has been done in two ways: library and field. The statistical population of the research includes households living in rural settlements around the city of Kerman. The sample size was obtained using the Cochran formula, 372 households, and the samples were selected using the simple random sampling method. The collected data were analyzed in SPSS and Excel software environment using sample t-test, Friedman and Mabak technique. The results of the sample TT test show that the negative economic, socio-cultural and physical-spatial consequences of creeping and annexing villages to the city, in the studied area with an average of 3.67, are more than the positive consequences with an average of 3.26. The results of Friedman's test show that among the positive results, the environmental awareness index, with an average rating of 12.30, and the infrastructure improvement index, with an average rating of 10.08, have a higher rating than other indicators. Also, among the negative consequences, the index of environmental pollution, with an average rating of 5.8, land use change, with an average rating of 5.54, and cultural conflicts with an average rating of 5.38 have a higher rating than other indicators. In general, the results of Friedman's test show that the surrounding villages of Kerman city have been affected by urban sprawl and the annexation of villages to Kerman city. Finally, the results of the Mabak model also show that among the villages around Kerman city, Qaem Abad village ranks first with Si value of 0.221, and Saadat Abad village ranks sixth with Si value of 0.103.
