Though the city has experienced an expansion in the commercial context with civil war and migration in Syrian, in the context socio-cultural it seems that migration brings significant problems in social life. Especially women are affected by this problem and this effect is change based on women's tolerance of "hospitality" is to change perceptions based on the women's tolerance of "hospitality" perceptions.
