Globally, TB cases are reported at 90%, with 58% in men and 32% in women. In addition, TB cases in children amount to 10% (Global Tuberculosis Report 2021). In 2021, the Padang City Health Office recorded 1,199 cases tuberculosis, with Lubuk Buaya having the most cases with 52 cases in 2022. The general objective of this study was to determine how the incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis in Lubuk Buaya urban village, Padang City, correlates with the physical condition of the house and clean and healthy living behavior. This study was a descriptive analytical study using quantitative methods; the study population was 27 people suffering from tuberculosis, with 27 case and 27 control samples. The results showed that there were 50 positive TB cases, humidity met the requirements 46.3%, ventilation met the requirements 51.9%, lighting met the requirements 61.1%, and good PHBS 33.3%. According to the bivariate value of the chi square test, the p value of humidity (0.029 < OR = 4.038), ventilation (0.014 < OR = 4.750), lighting (0.026 < OR = 4.375), and PHBS (0.009 < OR = 6.129). The findings and discussion demonstrate the relationship between PHBS, humidity, ventilation, illumination, and occupancy density and tuberculosis cases. It is advised that the Lubuk Buaya Community Health Center and the Padang City Health Office increase community awareness of tuberculosis prevention. They should provide instructions on healthy homes and the implementation of community-based total sanitation. To stop the chain of tuberculosis spread, the community is asked to establish healthy houses.
