Security is one of the fundamental requirements of human society which has two dimensions: objective and subjective. The subjective dimension is related more to the social components and the objective aspect is related to the physical and skeletal components. Therefore, to enhance the overall security, it is necessary that these two dimensions must be given attention. In the process of proper modeling of urban environments, it is necessary to create some space to meet today's needs and also to possess the necessary elements for the realization of security (Kerir 1375 Hegira). The main objective of this study is to investigate the improved mechanisms of the security of the districts and identify the factors that affect the level of safety of the residents in Zahedan (area one), as well as, to leveling the security of the districts based on physical and functional parameters. Thus, after studying the theories, concepts, approaches, and international experiences, the concepts and parameters to measure the rate of security, and to identify the variables that affect the safety levels of security would be taken into consideration. Based on this, by creating an experimental model and measurement security the extent of the residents' security in physical and functional dimensions would be assessed. Then, the questionnaire techniques would be used to collect sample data. With the help of SPSS data were extracted and statistically were analyzed through Single Average Variance Analysis Test. The reliability and validity of the questionnaire was tested by using Alpha Cronbakh. Based on the findings of the major variables of the study, namely "functional dimension" and "physical dimension", with the depended variable of the rate of security of residents in Zahedan (area one), there has been a significant relationship. So, it can be said that the two independent variables, physical and functional, have straightforward relationship with the dependent variable of security. Also, it was found that from the two abovementioned indices, functional index has had the greatest impact on the increased sense of security. In analyzing the level of security in terms of physical and functional parameters, it was found that the highest level of security existed in district 7 of area one with an average of 4.26. The lowest level of security existed in district 4 of area one with an average of 3.30.
