description Algeria underwent expedited urbanization in response to a growing demand for housing. The study aims to identify the current housing situation in Algiers from 1984 to 2021 using official statistics and a field investigation of a sample of 600 households. The study also used Landsat 5 and 8 satellite images to analyze the development of vegetation cover in the province, so the results analyzed in SIG. This study shows that the built-up area has increased from 47.32 km2 in 1984 to 81.34 km2 in 2021, damaging the fertile Mitidja plain. Inadequate housing persists despite the rise in residential construction, and insecure dwellings are proliferating due to migration.
