This study aims to identify the effect of distance of housing to the airport on the level of noise disturbance. The airport is an area of land or water with certain boundaries that used as a place to landing and take-off. As a vital and dynamic object, the airport’s surrounding has to accommodate its future developments and keep secure by keeping away from residential areas. And vice versa, for the convenience of its residents, these housings need to be regulated at a minimum distance from the airport. Its residents will be affected by noise due to aircraft traffic activity. Noise is unwanted sound at a certain level and time causing interference. Soekarno-Hatta International Airport was chosen considering the high intensity of aircraft traffic with large aircraft dimensions and high noise interference. Dimensions of noise disorders studied include physical disorders, communication disorders, sleep disorders, disruption of activity, and emotional disorders. This research is quantitative using a survey-questionnaire method. The number of samples was determined using the Lemeshow formula of 96 respondents. The results show that the effect of distance on the noise disturbance level for all the dimensions mentioned above is significant. This result emphasizes the need for a minimum distance limitation between housing and the airport.
