dc.description.abstract Increased development and urbanization of a city may cause higher risk from seismic events, even in areas of moderate seismicity. This study takes the case of the City of Jeddah, which is expanding rapidly in number of buildings and population. The study addresses the rapid evaluation of residential buildings using the Rapid Evaluation Method (REM) to assess building stock to determine hazard and computing vulnerability, with scoring method from FEMA 155. Two districts were selected for investigation based on cluster analysis applied to population and building data from the municipal office. One district is a modern developing urbanized area en_US
