Hezar Kanian (Persian: هزاركانيان, also Romanized as Hezār Kānīān)[3] is a city in, and the capital of, Saral District of Divandarreh County, Kurdistan province, Iran.[4] It is also the administrative center for Saral Rural District.[5] The village is populated by Kurds.[6]
At the 2006 census, its population was 511 in 109 households, when it was a village in Saral Rural District.[7] The following census in 2011 counted 773 people in 156 households.[8] The latest census in 2016 showed a population of 544 people in 115 households.[2]
After the census, the village of Hezar Kanian was elevated to the status of a city.[9] It has a fast pace of growing in the main areas of agriculture. The location of the new city of Hezar Kanian can be explained and analyzed in many points, but four points: access location, geomorphological construction, economic foundations and population strategies, are more effective for the development of such settlements, which if the right policies are adopted, will cause the physical development of this new city. It is emphasized again that it is necessary to provide the ground for the sustainability of the population with a new functional definition and diversification of the urban economy.[citation needed]
