Abstract : Urban kampong is one of the typical forms of urban settlement in Indonesia, and currently constitutes the majority of urban settlements in many cities in Indonesia. The high proportion of land use for urbansettlements in Indonesia highlights the importance and contribution of urban kampong for the overall sustainability of the city. The high density of buildings in the urban kampung forms a compact residential environment which is recently claimed as a sustainable form of built-environment. Malang City is one of the medium-sized cities in Indonesia that intensifies the development of thematic kampongs to improve the quality of urban kampongs within the city. One of the interesting kampongs in Malang City is Polehan Kampong. Polehan Kampong is one of 45 thematic kampongs in Malang and a grantee of the Communitybased Urban Upgrading Program that is considered to have a sufficient level of readiness. Therefore, it is crucial to see whether the development being carried out leads to sustainability, and the first essential step is to assess the physical aspect ofthe Kampong. Rapfishmultidimensional scaling (MDS) was used to estimate the physical sustainability status in Polehan Kampong. The result shows that compactness is the only variable that at an acceptable level, but the others are below expectation
