Abstrakt: This paper proposes the introduction of the integrated land use intensity index (ILUII) for new integrated urban residential projects in Egypt. This proposal is supported by previous studies and international experiences which have been used to formulate and calculate ILUII for housing sector developments. This index is also tested on a new Egyptian housing project for middle-income groups (an Arab Building Company [ABC] project). The testing focuses on assessing the role of ILUII and other indexes for achieving liveable communities. Furthermore, this paper investigates how this index could be applied to future housing projects in Egypt and could meet the goals and requirements of the state, residents and real estate developers.
