description The current study was conducted to investigate and explain poverty in Saravan village in Rasht city. In this research, survey method and structural equation modeling were used to present a model of based on results of the census in 2011, the number of villages in this district was 7 villages and the number of households was 4283 households. Morgan table was used to determine the sample size of the family heads living in rural areas of Saravan. Finally, 351 questionnaires were selected for family heads, which it was increased to 370 to obtain better results of the questionnaires. The results of a single sample T test indicate that the social and political indices are at good status. However, the T-value of the economic dimension is at the poverty status. The main reason for the poor status of this index is adequate consumption of fruits and vegetables in the household food plan, the inadequacy of housing space for children and the vulnerability of residential against earthquakes and accidents, and the sale of products indirectly through middlemen. It has caused respondents to consider lower scores for this index. According to the findings, the factor load of all items is confirmed in the social, economic and political dimensions.
