The discussion is begun with some theoretical views capable of explaining urban poverty in the  Third  World,  i.e.  Marginai  theory,  Developmental  theory,  Dependency  theory  and  Articulatory theory. These theoretical views become the bases for the discussion on finding policies to cope with the land system in our cities which causes the impecunious group of urban people which has high proximity level to the urban activities center, cannot obtain affordable housing.
