To achieve the objectives of the study, a questionnaire was designed and applied to a random sample of 100 beneficiaries from the housing of the Mohammed bin Rashid Housing Establishment. Descriptive and analytical statistics (frequencies, percentages, arithmetic mean, standard deviation and multi regression coefficient) were used to find out the attractiveness of the demographics of the respondents, and to analyse the study data in an integrated set of factors associated with the standard and official code. The results of the statistical analysis revealed that there was no statistically significant relationship between the independent variables (owner's gender, marital status, husband's age, wife's age, husband's occupational status, wife's occupational status, husband's educational level, wife's level, average monthly family income from all Resources, duration of residence) and a measure of proximity to service availability, environmental sustainability, and social sustainability on the other hand . Keywords: family's low income, sustainability criteria, sustainable development.
