What is it about?

By presenting an integrated analytical framework, this study offers the first systematic analysis of the relationship between population aging and housing demand in medium-sized Iranian cities. Through combining Marxist, Georgist, and spatial justice theories, it bridges spatial, methodological, and theoretical gaps within Iranian scholarship. Focusing on Shahin Shahr as a natural laboratory, the study provides transferable insights for developing cities. Quantitative modeling using the Spectrum software, along with proposing a practical policy package—such as land value taxation—strengthens its applied relevance and offers equity-focused and sustainable solutions to the elderly housing crisis.
