The development of dense residential complexes in the world since the 1960s has highlighted the importance of the quality of housing. Given that importance, different indicators have been developed to assess housing satisfaction. As a result, various studies in the sciences have emerged focusing on space and place. The tendency to evaluate the quality of housing in the project named “Mehr Housing,” the biggest housing project, has been no exception. However, the evaluation of different studies shows that the quality measurement research, which was carried out in the form of conventional methods of environmental studies and based on the definition of predetermined criteria, could not positively contribute to improving the conditions of these residential environments. This article aims to investigate the reasons why available studies have been ineffective and failed to achieve the expected results. The process of critiquing the conducted studies is guided by the belief that the main reason for failure is the research methodology. Based on scrutinizing these studies, it can be concluded that the separation of the studied components, the lack of attention to housing in a holistic form, as well as the limitation of the studies by researchers to a specific aspect that arises from the context of the theoretical field of research, are two main ineffective reasons.
