The research conducted was qualitative research with a phenomenological approach. The data analysis method used in this research is source triangulation analysis, which connects the interviews with all informants and draws conclusions from the research.

Efforts to reduce, reuse, and recycle waste have also been made, and infrastructure for waste management, such as trash cans, is available in each house.
