Extended Abstract Introduction The worn out textures are one of a variety of urban textures that are spatially unstable due to physical deterioration and inappropriate enjoyment and the existence of vulnerable infrastructures and are one of the main challenges facing most cities and especially metropolises. Currently, 53 spots of worn-out texture spots have been identified in 15 regions of Esfahan which now have 350,000 inhabitants living in these areas. Meanwhile, the extent of the worn out texture in the Isfahan’s region 5 is 69.75 hectares. This article seeks the extent to which the identification and prioritization of worn out textures within the scope of the study area can affect the revival and reduction of their vulnerability. Methodology Regarding the purpose of the research, this research is an applied type and the method of studying and analyzing information and data is a descriptive-survey method. According to the country's standards, the criteria of the gravels fineness, impermeability, and instability have been taken into considerations, and analyses were carried out using the AHP model and the GIS software. Discussion The main objective of this research is to prioritize worn out textures for restoration and renovation, the first step of which is to identify such textures. The criteria and indices which have been considered in this research include: material genus, the degree of deterioration, the age and the extent of the real estate, and to analyze the desirability and prioritization of worn out texture in order to modify the texture erosion, the indexes should be scored after defining the criteria and indexes and performing the initial classification. In the next step, scoring of the internal values of each of the indices was done and in the final stage, the coefficient of importance of each criterion was determined using the AHP model and the Thomas hourly table and the criteria with the same weight were combined and the final output was obtained. Conclusion The results indicate that the lack of facilities, utilities and infrastructure has led to the migration of local residents to other areas and negatively impacted the population growth rate in recent years. On the other hand, due to the socioeconomic condition of the inhabitants of the texture, the process of reconstruction and renovation inside the texture has slowed down and this factor has exacerbated the deterioration of the texture.

Kazerun is located in southern Fars province. It covers an area of about 2174 hectares. Due to inappropriate features (such as unemployment, shortage in services, narrow passages, population density, insufficiency in infrastructure, economic, social and legal problems), 10 percent of this area (about 210 hectares) are worn out urban texture with a direct influence on economic depression, worn out texture and its residents. These elements collectively reveals the significance of this study.
The present article seeks to recognize problems of worn out texture and the economic, social and cultural structure of the study area, while providing some suggestions to solve the problems in this texture. The study is performed using descriptive-analytic method and field study in Kazerun city. Required information and statistics are provided by authentic resources and reliable organizations and offices (municipality- governorate-cultural heritage organization- statistical yearbooks- 2006 and 1996 population and housing census). Results indicate that social-economic situation, inappropriate infrastructure facilities and management factor influence texture and cause texture underdevelopment. Moreover, many economic problems and social damages can be prevented by developing economic-social activities, creating job opportunities, correcting system of passages and improving service centers in the area.
