The results of 2 repeats of data rotation indicated that the fit index of the obtained model was 96.52%, which shows the high level of influence of the variables on one another. Moreover, based on the results of the present study, the index of strategic situation of the town and being located on the border (R) with a score of 114 had the strongest level of direct influence.
