The regeneration of built-up areas is considered as one of the necessary measures for the effectiveness of urban growth management. In this vein, this study explores how to limit the number of people who leaves the built-up areas and to restore the area with the resident. For this, a residential area of the built-up area is analyzed in terms of why people in that area are moving out of the area and who fills in it after all. This study founds that narrow roads in a residential area and the changes in land use from residential purposes to commercial are major forces that push the people in the built-up area. In addition, the lack of welfare facilities, the pavement of roads, and pedestrian roads. education. crime. the lack of interaction between neighbors, and the quality of housing are all emerged contributing the loss of people in the built-up areas. It is recommended that all the factors here should be restored in an appropriate way. Another finding is that those who fill in the built-up area are largely over 50, self-employed, comparably wealthy, and having their own families. Hence, it is advised that the built-up area would be rearranged in order to attract those type of people in there.
