The term of slums is used to define housing with poor and deteriorating conditions, and today the term slums is deep and dispersed. It has many meanings and contents and is bound by a set of influences and variables in all aspects of life. While scientific and social studies indicate that most slums are decrepit and their populations suffer from difficult social and economic conditions, other studies have shown that not all slums are poor; where there are slums, whose residents live in better social and economic conditions. This reflected well on the general features of the built environment of these areas, and this means that there are many aspects and features of these regions that we cannot all define in one form or put them into a unified model. From this standpoint, this research paper came to highlight a different model of the concept of slums called by luxury slums, in order to provide a greater opportunity to get to know and understand the realities of these areas, and the possibility of benefiting from them as models and study experiences that allow new perspectives in modern and future urban studies.
