One of the ways to achieve a balanced urban development is equitable distribution of services in different areas of the city. Inequality in the distribution of services has a significant impact on the urban space and management costs. Therefore, the spatial planning and organization of space in order to optimize the management of urban space, has made necessary equitable distribution of urban facilities and services. In the present research, the 8 regions of Ahwaz city in terms of development indicators have been studied. The research method is descriptive – analytical and use of Resource documents. Also, applying of "Multiple criteria decision making" method (ELECTRE) based on 12 indicators of urban development. AHP model is used for weighting of criteria. The results of the study show that the distribution of the resources and facilities are not proportionate with the population distribution of Ahwaz. Areas 3 and 4, in terms of development and having mentioned indicators of urban services, are ranked developed and developing upward and Region 5 has the development rate of 6 and is placed in the lowest rank. This leads depending areas with low development level to the areas with high levels of development and consequently, ended in social and economic gap in urban system.
