Abstract: Rapid urbanization
process has stimulated the emergence of the metropolitan area, including
Metropolitan Bandung Raya. The development of the metropolitan region is not
equipped by infrastructure. Generally, the level of service of infrastructure
varies based on income level. The purpose of this research is to identify the
relationship between solid waste service characteristics and household income
level. Solid waste service characteristics are measured from waste handling and
disposal, waste collection officers, the frequency of waste collection, and
fees and payment. The results of the analysis show that there is a relationship
between solid waste service and income level: the higher the income, the better
the solid waste service. The followings are some significant findings found in
this research: (a) solid waste service in housing developed by the developer is
better compared to those in self-help housing, and (b) solid waste service in
the urban area is better compared to those in peri-urban and rural area.
