The purpose of this study is determine the level of rural settlements based on the indices of livability in the villages around the metropolis of Rasht. Livability levels are determined based on relevant indices. The type of research is practical and the used method is descriptive-analytic and the Copras technique is used for analyzing data and information. The findings show that the continuity and belonging to the place index has the highest and tourism index has the least impact on the livability of the studied villages. The results of the Copras technique shows that Alman and Pirkalachah villages have the best condition and Varazgah and Koleshtaleshan villages have the worst condition in the livability. Based on the percentage of the importance of the studied villages, those are located at five levels of livability including very desirable livability, desirable livability, moderate livability, undesirable livability and very undesirable livability. Results in research can be the reason for future plans and with knowing the priority of villages, proposed programs are more practical and in order to increase the welfare of residents.
