Analysis of Housing Satisfaction of the Dwellers in Pabna Sweeper Colony as urban low-income housing in Bangladesh
The housing situation of Bangladesh's urban poor is deplorable. Bangladesh's progress innbsp;terms of healthy housing is hampered by rapid population expansion, an unequal politicalnbsp;hierarchy, a poor economy with widespread poverty, and a lack of interest in devisingnbsp;and executing practical measures. Housing for the poor, however, is a basic necessity fornbsp;survival. The goal of this study is to assess user satisfaction of the Pabna Sweeper Colonyin terms of lodging, utility services, and community facilities, all of which are importantnbsp;aspects of housing. The low-income residents of Pabna Municipality have low sanitarynbsp;and educational facilities. They grudgingly accept the reality of their living quarters. Theynbsp;lack access to basic needs such as gas for cooking, drainage systems that are exposed andnbsp;dirty, making the environment unlivable, and dwellings and housing elements that arenbsp;barely adequate to support life. Women and children suffer as a result of their lack ofnbsp;privacy and open space. These factors have resulted in an unfavorable condition in thenbsp;Pabna Municipality. The government has made very little effort to solve housing issues,nbsp;such as accessible utility services, sufficient sanitary and drainage facilities, andnbsp;community services. The significant findings of this study showed a relationship betweennbsp;housing satisfaction and the quality of basic facilities.
