Intense population focus and imbalance are characteristic of third world countries, resulting from polarized growth
policies. So, a limited number of areas have key roles and the other areas act as marginal. The first step to solve this
problem is to understand disparities in economical, social, and cultural aspects. This paper seeks to measure the
degree of development of the cities of Gilan province, Iran according to some development indexes in order to
obtain the rates and causes of regional inequalities along with a way to reduce the underdevelopment of the region.
Therefore, economic indexes have been used. After the analysis of the model, the results indicated that there is a
fundamental difference among the cities with respect to development indexes; they are ranked based on
developmental degrees as follow: Rasht, Bandar Anzali, Astaneh Ashrafieh, Lahijan, Roudbar, Masal, Rudsar,
Amlash, Siahkal, Some'esara, Langrood, shaft, Astara, Rezvanshahr, Fuman, and Talesh
