Abstrak

Ownership of healthy housing is a crucial factor in improving public health, particularly in coastal areas that are vulnerable to sanitation and environmental issues. This study aims to describe the condition of healthy housing ownership in the coastal community of Banggina Village, Motui Subdistrict, North Konawe Regency. A descriptive observational design with a quantitative approach was applied, conducted in January–February 2025 involving 83 respondents selected using accidental sampling. Data were collected through direct observation and questionnaires, and analyzed univariately. The findings indicate that most houses had floors and roofs that met the criteria for healthy housing, as well as ownership of latrines equipped with septic tanks. However, deficiencies were found in wall conditions that were not tightly sealed, the absence of proper wastewater drainage systems (SPAL), and limited availability of closed garbage containers. These findings highlight the need for comprehensive improvement in healthy housing ownership in coastal areas. The results serve as a critical basis for community-based intervention planning and local government policies to enhance residential environmental quality, thereby supporting the prevention of environmentally related diseases in coastal communities
