Besides Nicosia, there are four main settlements in North Cyprus: Kyrenia, Famagusta, Trikomo and Morphou. Kyrenia is one of the most important ones preferred by local and foreign people to live because of its social, environmental and economic values. In this direction, the city has experienced development spread towards the center perimeters to suburban and rural areas with increasing population. Thus, the ecological and socio-cultural sustainability values wear off. For protecting the socio-cultural and ecological values of the area and increase the level of sustainability approaches, an interference with systematic instruments from cities to rural areas is needed. Accordingly, the determination of the itinerary along with transect theory is important for the development of settlements. The data derived from the government planning organization and statistical data from the Cyprus Turkish Building Contractors Association (CTBCA) between 2004-2011-2016. The method is determined by SWOT analysis and the comparative analysis of the settlement dynamics of suburban and rural settlements towards the Kyrenia western-coastline.
