Indoor Environmental Quality of Households Resident Districts Within Ogbomoso Township, Nigeria
The study examines the health risk associated with of housing design in three different residential districts located within Ogbomoso, Nigeria. Variables considered as determinants, based on households’ survey and used for appraisal in this study include; quality of environment in terms of good layout, type of house/ building, volume of fenestrations and ventilation, mode of cooking and method of waste disposal etc. The goal was to identify the exposed population with rate or highest risk of health risks among residential households in Ogbomoso residential district. Both primary data and secondary data were used for the study. The study had area is Ogbomoso North Local Government area because it provides shelter for various backgrounds, races and ethnic cleavages. It is the seat of Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH) Ogbomoso which is a non- residential type, thus more houses constructed in order to accommodate both students and staff of the institution and the most important factor of development in the town. Making the development began to spread radically and farther away from the core areas of the town. The study area consist of ten wards which have three major district features of housing distinct types that provide shelters and other forms of land use. Thus, the three major residential blocks (areas) of the town were identified and were classified into three distinct density zones – low, medium and high. An area was then randomly selected to represent each residential density/zone to represent high, medium and low density areas respectively. The analysis is based on statistical estimation and concessions are based on the results obtained from these estimations. The findings indicated that different category of residential districts of the township has different housing design and attributes which thus dictate the rate of indoor health related problems peculiar to it hence broad generalization for the whole township could be erroneous.
