Abstract
The need for drinking water is increasingly proportional to the increasing population, while the source of drinking water is increasingly limited both in quantity and quality. The sustainable development goal requires that each region of the country be able to meet the needs of drinking water. How access to drinking water sources is still one of the problems faced by some residents. This study aims to examine the main sources of drinking water used by households in the central area of industrial activity. The research was carried out in the Central area of industrial activity in Semarang Regency. The study population was households and samples were taken by purposive random sampling. The research variables are the types of household drinking water sources and the number of households. Data analysis used descriptive percentages on each type of drinking water source. The results of the study showed that there was a transformation of household drinking water source access. Some households use bottled water for drinking water, with practical and easily accessible reasons. While there are still households that use drinking water from unprotected springs, even though the number is only around 5 percent.
