<![CDATA[Background: Flooding is one of the most frequent natural disasters in the Asia-Pacific region, particularly in Indonesia, which has extensive river systems. The Bengawan Solo River, the longest river in Java, frequently overflows and causes recurrent flooding in Bojonegoro Regency. However, evidence regarding household resilience in flood-prone areas, especially in dike-protected and dike-unprotected areas, remains limited. Purpose: This study aimed to assess household resilience among communities living in flood-prone areas of the Bengawan Solo River watershed in Kanor Subdistrict, Bojonegoro Regency. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted from October to November 2019 in three villages located in the Bengawan Solo River watershed. A total of 100 households were purposively selected, consisting of 50 households in dike-protected areas and 50 households in dike-unprotected areas. Household resilience was measured using the Community Disaster Resilience Index (CDRI-1), covering five dimensions: financial, human, natural, social, and physical capital. Resilience index scores were analyzed descriptively and compared between the two groups. Results: Household resilience was classified into five categories, ranging from very low to very high. Households in dike-unprotected areas had lower resilience scores in financial capital (0.39), human capital (0.69), natural capital (0.80), and physical capital (0.43) compared with households in dike-protected areas. Both groups showed the same social capital resilience score (1.00). Conclusion: Households in dike-unprotected areas tended to have lower resilience across several dimensions. Strengthening financial and physical capital is essential through public health and disaster risk reduction policies for communities in flood-prone areas.]]>
