The concept of urban quality of life has been invigorated in the wake of social welfare and social justice schools. In Iran, from the past, there have been several discussions and attempts to improve the urban quality of life. This paper identifies the indicators and factors affecting urban prosperity in the dimension of quality of life in Tabriz and then the urban areas of Tabriz based on Indicators of the quality of life associated with urban prosperity are ranked using the PROMETHEE model.
