High blood pressure is a cardiovascular syndrome characterized by increased arterial blood pressure which often occurs in the elderly. An unhealthy lifestyle will worsen the health condition of the elderly, especially regarding their blood pressure. The aim of this research is to determine the relationship between lifestyle and blood pressure in the elderly in the Kendalkerep Community Health Center Working Area, Malang City. This research uses a correlative design with a cross sectional study approach. The sample in this study was all 80 elderly people >60 years old who were selected using purposive sampling techniques. Data collection was carried out using a lifestyle questionnaire. The data analysis method uses univariate and bivariate analysis.
