Abstract:
Row houses have developed in Indonesia since the 1970s. This increase in houses is according to the dynamics of
population growth in urban areas. The row house is a building that is not stacked with a floor area of not more than
70m2, which is built on land with an area of 54-100m2 plots. This study reveals the residents' satisfaction with the
house's condition and environment. The researchers used descriptive quantitative methods in percentage figures
to reveal occupant satisfaction in various aspects of the house's condition and its environment. This study used
questionnaires to assess the satisfaction of 250 residents of row houses in Makassar. Aspects of the house condition
include the shape of the facade, space requirements, lighting levels, ventilation, open space, materials, and space
functions. Environmental aspects include neighborhood road conditions, residential facilities, clean water
networks, waste management, and accessibility. The results showed that, in general, the occupants had a low level
of satisfaction with the house's condition and its environment. In the aspect of the house condition, the occupants
are generally dissatisfied with the compliance of the space function needs. Furthermore, the occupants generally
show low satisfaction with the neighborhood road conditions. The results of this study become the consideration
for developers in environmental management in row houses.
