| The residential district is considered as the atmosphere to the earth. As environmental conditions get better, the earth inhabitants' health gets better. This is applicable to homes. The healthier environmental conditions within the district, the more residents will be in comfort. It is a well known fact that, in addition to municipal regulations, economic, social and environment are the main factors affecting the housing environmental quality. The housing quality is directly linked to the residential district quality. Land divisions reflect this quality, The aim of this paper is developing a model of land divisions that improves the residential environment and raises the quality of house. This could be achieved by defining the local and international planning patterns. In addition to this, land divisions governing systems are analyzed and their ideal styles were defined Several results were concluded through this research. The following are the most important of these results are: The shallowness of the accredited land division system. The grid pattern, despite its many negative effects, is the base for most of the land divisions. The interest of current land divisions in the effect of the vehicles' movement within the residential. districts and neglecting the pedestrian movement. .
