Abstract

This study explores the perceptions of urban communities regarding the significance of sustainable housing within the Greater Tangerang region. Investigating how residents perceive the importance of sustainable features in their housing environments, the research examines the awareness and attitudes of urban inhabitants toward sustainable housing practices. Employing a survey data quantitative assessment with questionnaire, the study aims to shed light on the urban community's perspectives on sustainable housing and its potential impact on the overall urban environment. Urban communities in Greater Tangerang show moderate understanding of sustainable housing, requiring improved education and outreach efforts. Despite already exhibiting great caring interest, there's a need for a large-scale initiative involving all stakeholders to further promote sustainable housing concepts and enhance overall awareness and implementation. The findings contribute valuable insights for policymakers, urban planners, and developers seeking to enhance sustainable housing initiatives in the Greater Tangerang area. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
