Indonesia still has challenges in meeting the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030, particularly in regard to human settlements. In Indonesian cities there is a type of residential area referred to as kampung kota which is occupied by a large portion of urban dwellers. Despite the efforts to plan the residential area, kampung kota is considered equal to slum and squatter areas. This study seeks to identify the key variables of kampung kota, to later define kampung kota as a type of Indonesian residential area. The analyses are done qualitatively and quantitatively, aiming to generate a more comprehensive definition of kampung kota. It is found that at the kelurahan scale (the lowest level of government administration in Indonesia), economic ability, infrastructure condition, building condition, and social interaction can help to define kampung kota.
