Abstract

The net income and cost of rural households is one of the main factors affecting sustainable rural development. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to examine the distribution of rural and household income and expenditure and its spatial distribution distribution among the cities of West Azarbayejan province during 2016-2017. Regarding the aim of the study, the statistical population of the present study is rural households in West Azarbaijan province (3669 villages and 304853 households). 142 villages (403 households) using Cochran formula and stratified random cluster sampling were selected as sample. Information was obtained using a standard questionnaire (household income cost questionnaire of the National Center for Statistics of Iran). The overall results indicated that the average total income of rural households in West Azarbaijan was 16654920 tomans per year and the average total cost per household per month was 1989071 tomans. Also, the results showed that rural households in Naghadeh and Takab cities have the highest and lowest annual income levels, respectively. The rural households of Shohr, Poldasht and Moko cities have the lowest cost per month and the city of Piranshahr has the highest household cost per month.
