Abstract

This study aims to explore the relationship between perceived city livability and individual commuting time in 26 cities in Indonesia. The research is motivated by the rapid urbanization in Indonesia, with an estimated 66.6% of the population projected to live in urban areas by 2035. With the increasing population, there is a potential for a decrease in city livability and longer commuting time for individuals. The length of commuting time can lead to various health and environmental issues. Using logistic regression, the study found that every improvement in city livability is negatively associated with a 0.3% decrease in the probability of individuals commuting for more than 60 minutes. However, if rapid urbanization continues without improvements in city livability, it is likely to increase the probability of individuals commuting for longer durations. These findings emphasize the need for improvements in urban environments, such as the development of compact cities, with the provision of good accessibility.
