Quality of life is a concept that has received wide attention from researchers in various fields. And Quality of urban life is the part that describing the influential relationship between the built environment and personal life.
This research focuses on two issues: the quality of urban life, as it is one of the international new issues which focuses on two types of assessments: (a) the objective assessments in which evaluates the built environment that surround the person and (b) the individuals' subjective assessment on their level of quality of life. The other issue is the importance of considering the concept of QOUL when designing urban communities in Cairo and dealing with unsafe and unplanned areas.






The research states a way to link the two issues to each other, by (a) forming a database theory of QOUL indicators and outline its role in the development process, and (b) studying the Egyptian vision 2050, and (c) deriving a methodology in which we depend on QOUL Indicators as an approach to develop new communities and improve unsafe and unplanned areas. so, to form a more in-depth and comprehensive approach to deal with the challenges that meet architects, urban planners, and developers when solving the housing problems in Cairo.
