Demographics
Population
At the time of the 2006 and 2011 National Censuses, the village's population was below the reporting threshold, when it was in Hakimabad Rural District of the Central District. The 2016 census measured the population of the village as 23 people in 10 households.
In 2021, the rural district was separated from the district in the formation of Zaviyeh District. Yahyaabad was transferred to Rahmatabad Rural District created in the new district.

Why this record matters
The phrase “village in Markazi province, Iran” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Maps, plans, fabric surveys and administrative records can establish how the site’s name, extent and function changed over time. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 24, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q140700229. The first chronological checks are 2006, 2011, 2016 and 2021.
Modern boundaries and familiar names can conceal earlier jurisdictions or structures that do not align with the present site. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
