Rural areas that are vital parts of the economic and social structure of communities have faced new challenges and issues over recent decades. The inefficient agriculture sector is one of the critical challenges that causes the spillover of rural migrants towards cities. This continuous trend has led to labor force imbalances in rural communities and new challenges for the economic and social economic of these areas. In this regard, the migration rate in villages of Kuhdasht County located in Lorestan province has become a serious and multifaceted issue for development because this case has led to the migration of rural young people to cities, and failure in job and income opportunities in rural areas.  This study aims to find a solution for alleviating or slowing down the rate and velocity of individuals’ exit from an area, that causes a social problem. This study was conducted based on the descriptive-analytical method using documentary data and field visits in villages in Kuhdasht County to assess the migration statistics of individuals and find the relationship between these migrations and the infrastructure available in the area. This study attempts to address the impact of the industrial development plan on the spatial capacity of villages and respond to these migrations. Research findings imply that industrialization of a village based on the available potentials of the place can be used as a tool for diversifying of village’s economy and attracting effective investments in rural areas to create stable job opportunities, increase the economic competition power of rural areas, and bring balance to development between rural and urban areas. Therefore, industrial development strategies based on the place specifications can effectively slow down the migration process and keep human resources as significant pillars of the place and rural sustainable development.
