Abstract
The phenomenon of less physical activities - caused by today’s lifestyle is closely related to the quality of the neighbourhood in term of promoting physical activities such as walking, playing in parks, and other social activities. Less physical activities are currently one of the causes of the emergence of non-communicable disease (NCD). For this reason, it is very important to delve how the neighbourhood relate with the physical activity and how the impact of the climate in increasing or decreasing the physical activities and quality of the neighbourhood as well. This research focus on Neighbourhood, physical activity and climate as creator factor of NCD. This study aims to find the evidence of the relationship between neighbourhood quality and physical activities, as well aa climate factor that influence the physical activities in tropical area. Using articles retrieved from the Scopus Database in the period 1997 to 2023, metadata analysis was performed using RStudio software, the Bibliometrix package, and the Biblioshiny web interface. Through Bibliometric analysis, relevant sources, topics related to research publications regarding neighbourhoods can be explored. Global scientific distribution, level of collaboration between regions, author performance and publication are also examined to determine the scientific landscape. The results of correlation studies between neighbourhood, physical activity and tropical climate resulted in relatively few research papers in tropical area and this illustrates a fairly large gap in terms of the literature.
