The present research has studied the role of local management in improving indicators of spatial evolution in Esfandagheh. Therefore, the research has considered internal features and external features of indicators of local management as the influential variables, and the dimensions of spatial evolution (such as environmental-ecological, social, economic, and physical-infrastructural ones) as the factors which are influence by the preceding ones. The present research was an applied, quantitative one in which a questionnaire was distributed among 370 households in 30 villages which were randomly selected. The results indicated that there is a statistically significant positive relationship between indicators of local management and dimensions of spatial evolution in the rural settlements studied. Furthermore, economic index is ranked as the first dimension (mean=3.27), and environmental-ecological index (mean=3.19), social index (mean=3.14), and physical-infrastructural index (mean=2.91) are ranked as the second, the third, and the last one respectively. Therefore, it is suggested that local management pay more attention to spatial evolution in rural settlements, especially in terms of the physical-infrastructural dimension via adopting appropriate policies to improve social and economic activities.
