Abstract
The City of Malang grows annually along with the implementation of its spatial policy. One of the policies that stimulates movement into the city is the development of land for settlements. Limited land and high demands have led to the expansion of settlements towards the urban fringe of Malang City, especially for the south-north region. The purpose of this study was to identify the characteristics of settlements in the north-south regions of Malang City. The variables studied consisted of patterns and types of settlement, land use and land cover, land prices, housing density, and the population. The five aspects of the settlement were studied using the descriptive statistical analysis methods and spatial mapping. The results of descriptive statistical analysis show that there are different characteristics of settlements in the north-south regions of Malang City. The difference can be seen in the four aspects, such as land use and land cover, land prices, housing density, and population. Meanwhile, based on the results of spatial mapping analysis, the different characteristics occurs due to the availability of road access and proximity to city-regional-scale facilities.
