“…The dwelling system is often unbundled as housing features and services. Housing features are assessed using variables such as sizes, number and quality of main functional areas notably bedrooms and sitting rooms, toilet/bathrooms, kitchens, stores, indoor environmental quality (IEQ) of interior spaces, privacy, appearance of dwelling and building materials (Ochepa, 2018;Etminani-Ghasrodashti et al, 2017;Ibem & Amole, 2012;Jiboye, 2012). Housing services pertain to the provision of basic amenities such as water and electricity supply, plumbing, cleanliness et cetera (Hassan et al, 2019;Maina et al, 2018;Jiboye, 2010).…”

Residential satisfaction has been employed to assess housing environments across several disciplines. However, measurement of variables remains an issue across large and small samples. This study assesses residential satisfaction in Gombe, Northeast Nigeria using the Housing Habitability System framework to ascertain it's consistency across different locations and sample sizes. A mixed methodology including informal interviews and a questionnaire survey of 41 public housing residents in Gombe analysed in SPSS for descriptive and inferential statistics revealed that findings were consistent with four characteristics of residential satisfaction studies employing the framework identified across the country from previous studies. Specifically, results established that residents of public housing in Gombe were generally dissatisfied with their housing environments. Additionally, satisfaction followed the dwelling-neighbourhood-management sequence found in literature. Eight components extracted from principal component analysis reflect housing conditions in the study area. The study concludes that measurements based on tenets of Housing Habitability System framework produces consistent results across regions and different sample sizes and is beneficial for comparative purposes towards improvement of residential satisfaction research in Nigeria.

“…The eighth and ninth government's approach to housing was followed by policies like Zero of land, with laws such as the bill regulating and supporting the production and supply of housing, to executive solutions such as the Mehr housing plan (Ajilian et al, 2015;Ivani and Rostami, 2014). In the definition of this project, it can be said that the Mehr Housing project is a plan with the aim of reducing and eliminating the cost of land from the finished building cost, and it is designed to supply living places for lowincome and middle-income families (Etminani-Ghasrodashti et al,2017;Kalhor et al,2013;Poormohamadi et al, 2012). The officials also believed that the cost of housing would be lowered by removing land prices from the cost of building and highlighting the role of government, in addition to increasing the accountability of housing demand in the coming years (Parhizgar and Shahedi, 2010).…”

“…The quantity of housing production was the priority of this plan. In addition to the criticisms that have been made in the field of locating and supplying infrastructures (Ghasemi & Ozay, 2018); (Etminani-Ghasrodashti, Majedi, & Paydar, 2017), the development goals of the 20-year vision plan document, which are based on cultural, geographical and historical basis of the country and ethical principles and Islamic values have not been addressed in mehr housing projects.
