And also in the stage of data analysis, base economic model, location quotient technic and Williamson and coefficient of variation inequality indexes are used. Research findings indicated that agriculture sector in 70 percent of urban regions of Iran and 82 percent of urban regions of Khorasan Razavi have had relative advantage. In industry sector, relative advantage of urban regions of Iran is upper than urban regions of Khorasan Razavi (%36.7 versus %23.5). But in service sector, relative advantage of urban regions of Khorasan Razavi is upper than urban regions of Iran (%64.7 versus %50). In indeterminate and nonprofess sector, relative advantages of urban regions of Khorasan Razavi is upper than urban regions of Iran (%41 versus %20).dominance of activities in this sector shows that formal sectors in this urban regions don’t have ability to attract the employments.
