Traditionally, rural settlements were associated with agriculture. In modern times other types of rural communities have been developed. And the Settlement pattern is also changed with time. The study is based on rural housing pattern, because housing is a basic need for mankind. The study area is a village named Bhetupara which is located at Mohanpur upazila in Rajshahi district. The objective of the study is to know about their housing condition and show the trends of changes in settlement pattern. Housing condition represents basically the condition of basic facilities in the village such as sanitation, drinking water facilities and electricity connection. In this paper, he condition is shown trend line analysis and by chart. In the analysis three years data is used to illustrate the trend and compare the present condition in terms of previous condition. The 2001 and 2011 data is collected from Community Series of Rajshahi, and 2017’s data is collected from questionnaire survey and field survey. The sample size of household survey was 50 among 171 households and the method used for data sample selection is random sampling method. The study is based on both quantitative and qualitative data.
