Abstract
Boiling drinking water becomes habit following the raise of the worry about drinking water hygiene. However, the increase of bottled water production and water re-fill depot affected the habit of boiling drinking water. This study aimed to analyse the habit of urban community regarding boiling drinking water with respect to the source of drinking water and education level. Cross sectional study was conducted on urban society in Kampung Salo subdistrict, Kendari, Indonesia. A number of 100 respondents were included in the study by mean of questionnaire. We employed a logistic regression to analyse the factors contributed to the habit of processing drinking water in the urban society. Results showed that there was no any significant effect between the habit of boiling drinking water with the source of drinking water (p = 0.999) and education level (p = 0.078). Conclusion : the source of drinking water and education level do not associate with the habit of boiling drinking water.
