Abstract
Harzevil neighborhood is an ancient area in the North of Iran and the North- East of Manjil. People live there for more than one century and most of them are related. They stay in Harzevil for several generations even after a catastrophic quake that was happened on 21th June 1990.
The community has been observed closely (and interviewed) for five years, 20 years after the quake and it was tried to identify sense of community elements and evaluate the levels of that before (and after) the quake; then, levels of disaster resilience during (and after) the quake was estimated. Then the advantages was processed and compared together.
We found a very close relationship between the existence of high levels of sense of community before the quake (and after that) and being more resilient during (and after) the disaster and it sounds like, physical place act as a catalyst;
