Abstract:
One of the basic variables in housing is the housing density concept, this concept is a measure of the intensity of occupation of land, It is expressed as a number of people per hectare or the number of dwelling units per hectare or the number of rooms per dwelling units, etc. The density effect the nature of residential environment, because it depends on the size and type of dwelling units, Economic, social, health and technical factors have the basic role in determining the density, and also refluct the standard of livingin each residential area, Baghdad is one of the metropolitian city in the world, which suffer from the high rate of population increase, while at the same time have a low rate of increment in the number of dwelling units, So the rate of occupation is very high (it is exceed than 2 persons per room or more than one family in dwelling unit) if it compared with rate of occupancy in the world,To provide an instrument for assessment for control of living standard within housing arc : \l.!. 2. To provide measures of the rate of land use that can be used to estimate total land needs for all purposes of community to control the intensity of occupation of housing areas.J. To reconcile the rate of land use for housing and other urban residential purposes with total demands on land use affecting the general economy and well - being of the town or country as a whole.4. Analysis the factors which have more influencing on housing density and vice versa. Housing density in Baghdad city have been different from area to another. It reaches over than 700 person per hectare in some areas (old residential areas), while do not exceed than 90 person per hectare in others (new residential areas). This depend at theplots size, income level and the location of the housing area. Also depend at the social and culture background of the residence. There are three types of housing density in Baghdad city : New residential density which is equal to 166 person per hectare (an average) 2. Gross residential density which is equal to 163 person per hectare (an average).3. Town density which is not exceed than JO person per hectare.According to the differential in the density of the residential areas I have put some policies for controlling the density which may assist the planner in determining the acceptable type of density, and to achieve the healthy and best residential environment.Also I have put some recommendations and I hope it will be taken into consideration in future for planning density,
