The research methodology is descriptive-analytical and its purpose is to be applicable. According to the research subject and the region under study, the survey study was selected for data gathering. Sampling was done through systematic random method and data were gathered through questionnaires. The statistic population includes the entire people residing Mehregan and the statistic sample adopted from the Cochran Questionnaire is equal to 278 questionnaires. The data analysis was done through SPSS 21 software. Research results, represented in Spearman Correlation Test, showed that there is a positive significant relationship between age and satisfaction of residential complex, and, on the other hand, there are negative significant relationships between educational degrees and monthly income with the satisfaction of residential complexes. The factors extracted from single-sample t-test model include six effective factors: social security, vision and perspective, architectonics, access, environmental factors, and facilities; linier regression model was used then, in the last step. Finally the architectonics factor was identified as the most effective (coefficient=0.419) and will be the most effective factor on residents satisfaction about residential environment quality at Mehregan town in the future.
