One of the methods for studying the welfare of urban households is to examine their income, which is influenced by the social and economic status of households. The aim of this study is to identify the key factors affecting household income in the city of Ardabil. This research is applied in terms of purpose and descriptive-analytical in terms of method, with a futuristic approach. The statistical population of the study consists of 25 scientific experts in the fields of economics and urban planning who were selected based on snowball sampling. In order to achieve this goal, the variables affecting urban household income were prepared and compiled by experts in the form of a Delphi questionnaire. In the subsequent stage, the interconnections among 45 variables were elucidated in the form of 5 indices. This was achieved through the application of a futuristic approach, employing a cross-impact matrix and the MICMAC software, to analyze the effect and the susceptibility of said variables. The results illustrated that government investment and policies, domestic and foreign investment, water resources, farmlands and pasturelands, access to markets, agricultural activities, average wages, and industrialization are the key predictors of household income, and these predictors have the greatest impact on activities in the underground economy, marginalization, social damages, and migration through the income channel.
