There is a potential adverse impact of housing construction in rural areas that arise due to the increased heat of the housing population trends to produce various kinds of heat. This article focuses on the roughness of the roof, energy density, and house height home that may contribute to the development of the Urban heat island (UHI). Researchers compared the variation of UHI on 125 homes in a residential village in South Sumatra. By using multiple linear regression, researchers found indications that the highest UHI intensity arise when the house have slippery roofs, tall, small ratio of green to built area, and a large home electricity consumption. Natural factors also become important determinants, especially the weather. Based on these findings, a number of policies to prevent heat buildup in housing outside the city recommended
