Abstract

Statistics and researches ensure that most of the New-Egyptian Cities haven't achieved the target they have been established for. They haven't succeeded to attract the population increase in the mother-cities. A strange contradiction has appeared between the housing and peopling case in a big number of these new-cities where you can see uninhabited building. This case clearly indicates that there is a drawback that hinders these cities fulfilling the aimed goals.
this research aims to shed light on the criteria of improving and developing the urban housing-areas in the new cities, applying on New-Minia trying to point out how far it has succeeded or failed to realize these criteria and achieve the targeted development.
This study has hypothesized that the lack to apply a comprehensive collection of criteria of improvement and development for housing-areas in the New-Egyptian cities is the main factor that forbids these cities from reaching the rate of development aimed at.
To prove its hypotheses, the research has applied the following procedure. First; a theoretical study for the aims and criteria of the urban improvement and development planned to develop The New-Cities. Second; studying analyzing the applied study in the housing areas in New-Minia. The research has resulted in a collection of results and recommendations that necessitates setting up a number of criteria for the needed development so as to include in the overall planning for the new-cities in order to ensure the comprehensive development and having a secial vision according to the circumstances of each new-city.
