Abstract
Despite the growing evidence indicating the effect of housing conditions on health and well-being, there is no tool to assess and remediate the housing conditions in Indonesia related to health and well-being. This study aims to assess housing conditions in Indonesia and their association with the health and well-being of the occupants by using questionnaires. Participants in this study were residents living in Greater Jakarta. The number of participants was 197 people with mostly live in non-apartment houses. It was found that most of the houses in Greater Jakarta were healthy in terms of housing density since overcrowding is not an issue where most of the participants at least have one bedroom for a maximum of two people. However, having full-time ventilation is encouraged to have a better thermal environment in a tropical country like Indonesia. In conclusion, this study provides valuable insights for related stakeholders to improve housing conditions in Indonesia, considering the occupants' health and well-being.
