In recent years, climate change and environmental crises have emerged as major challenges for rural communities. The border villages of Hirmand, with their specific geographical and social characteristics, face issues such as water scarcity, poverty, and economic instability. Resilience emphasizes the capacity of human societies to cope with disasters. Currently, governments are increasingly adopting a combination of structural and non-structural strategies to enhance settlement resilience, aiming to reduce vulnerability and strengthen the ability of citizens and villagers to manage risks from natural disasters. These challenges affect not only the quality of life of residents but also the long-term resilience of these communities. Accordingly, this study aimed to investigate household resilience in the border villages of Hirmand County. The research employed a descriptive–analytical approach, using library, documentary, and survey methods. The statistical population consisted of heads of households in 23 sample villages, with a sample size of 357 randomly selected individuals based on Cochran’s formula. Data were analyzed using SPSS, ArcGIS, and Expert Choice software, applying the MULTIMOORA model, as well as the Mann–Whitney and Friedman tests. The results indicate significant differences in resilience levels among the studied villages. Gamshad, Qarqari, and Piran exhibited the highest resilience, while Mirja'afarkhan, Sanjrani, and Dehmardeh Siadak showed the lowest levels. Mann–Whitney U test results confirmed that these differences are statistically significant.
