Sustainable housing includes sustainable building principles, which are applied to the aspects of planning, constructing, and managing living environments. This research aims to contribute to the understanding of sustainable housing in Indonesia by assessing the sustainability index of housing indicators within a comprehensive framework and considering various factors that impact people's quality of life. The research findings indicate that the sustainability index values for economic, social, and environmental dimensions show a quite sustainable range. it means that the housing is designed and built with a balanced consideration of its impact on the economy, society, and the environment. Although overall the three dimensions show sustainability, it is necessary to improve several indicators in each dimension that are not sustainable, such as maintenance and operating costs; safety and security; and waste management.
