After reaching the map of classification of the Sub-district, a field study was conducted for the city of Giza. Two notes in the first note found clear differences in some areas between the results of the cluster analysis of the standard of living within a single Sub-district and between reality and the second note that there are a number of Sub-district that include in nature more than a standard of living; As a result, the standard of living in some parts of that Sub-district does not match its general classification. Therefore, a field audit was carried out at the level of parts of the Sub-district in Giza city through two criteria, the average rent price and the average selling price.
