Despite this fact,, These cities are still dealing and struggling with a variety of urban problems such as : housing shortages, high
unemployment rate, urban transportation problems and failure to supply other services, as well as environmental destruction. As
the direct result of the allocation of all the resources to the large cities, the other regions of the country, including small cities
and the rural areas have become stagnant and underdeveloped. The efforts to speed up the development of the small cities have
been intensified to deal with the lack of equilibrium and harmony created by the unbalanced growth and development of the cities.
To guide and monitor these developments, the Urban Regional Development and Planning was found to ensure and emphasize
dynamism of the small cities. Small cities development can have an effect on the region only if these cities' development is
sustainable and Takes place properly therefore, sustainable urban development is one of the requirements for the regional
development approach. Housing and its appropriate development is one of the affecting and important factors in achieving urban
development and realization of sustainable development in small cities. This article discusses housing's place and its role in the
process of achieving sustainable urban development in small cities based on its characteristics and indicators and refers these
cities' function in the regional development planning.
