Abstract
Sustainability of the settlements has been a concern in the SDGs, especially goal no. 11. It focuses on ensuring adequate, safe, and affordable housing, increase the resilience toward disaster, as well as reduce the environmental impacts. Indonesia is one of the developing countries that has been facing the sustainability challenge of settlement in the form of slums. Many of them are found in the riverside area, which would threaten environmental sustainability in the long term. This study aims to explore the essential sustainability factors of the riverside settlement by comparing two cases, namely, Kampong Code and Kampong Sumeneban. Those kampongs have different conditions, where Kampong Code tends to be better than Kampong Sumeneban. The questionnaires have been distributed to 50 households in respective kampong to obtained the data. Also accompanied by the interview to the prominent persons of the kampongs. Scoring and descriptive statistical analysis have been carried out to answer the goal. The result shows that Kampong Code is more sustainable than Kampong Sumeneban. The most striking gap is found on ecological aspects and supports from other stakeholders. These points, further, would be essential to develop the more sustainable riverside settlement.
