The transformation of settlement patterns in Ciwandan District, Cilegon City, is a consequence of massive industrial expansion over the past two decades. This change has resulted in the conversion of coastal agricultural land into high-density urban-industrial areas with heterogeneous settlement characteristics. This study aims to describe population dynamics, spatial structure changes, and their impact on the quality of life of the community. The approach used is descriptive qualitative with a literature review method. The findings indicate that the increase in population, particularly the working-age population, is accompanied by the growth of informal housing and pressure on basic infrastructure such as sanitation, clean water, and green open spaces. The imbalance between industrial growth and the provision of public services has created various social and ecological challenges. Therefore, there is a need for the integration of spatial planning policies, adaptive infrastructure development, and partnerships between the government, the community, and the industrial sector to create livable and sustainable residential areas.

This study aims to present a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of Intellectual Quotient (IQ), Emotional Quotient (EQ), and Spiritual Quotient (SQ) in an academic context, particularly focusing on the role of lecturers. Using bibliometric methods. The data for this study came from 300 English-language scientific articles published in 2023 from the Scopus and Google Scholar databases. The analysis was carried out using keyword co-occurrence techniques, overlay visualization, density visualization, and author collaboration networks. The findings show that there is a strong focus on developing conceptual frameworks and reviewing literature related to IQ, EQ, and SQ, indicating an effort to understand the integration of these three intelligences as the foundation for human resource development in higher education. However, several keywords were also found to be thematically irrelevant, suggesting challenges in data filtering or uniqueness of terminology between disciplines. Collaborative networks between authors tend to be fragmented, indicating the potential for fostering broader collaboration. The implications of this study theoretically reinforce the need for the integration of IQ, EQ, and SQ in understanding holistic intelligence, while practically encouraging higher education institutions to design lecturer development programs that balance these three aspects of intelligence to form superior character and performance

This study aims to explore in depth the impact of population density on the quality of life of residents in densely populated areas of Serang City, Banten Province. The background of this research is based on the phenomenon of increasing population numbers due to ongoing urbanization and migration, which directly affects the social, economic, and environmental pressures in urban areas. This research employs a qualitative approach using a descriptive method. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with residents, community leaders, and local government officials, as well as field observations in areas with high population density. Secondary data were obtained from official documents such as reports from the Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS) and regional development planning documents. The results reveal that population density negatively affects access to basic services such as clean water, sanitation, education, and healthcare. Furthermore, it creates pressure on the living environment and reduces the comfort of residential spaces. Communities in high-density areas tend to face challenges in fulfilling basic needs adequately, which in turn impacts their overall well-being. This study highlights the importance of participatory and data-based urban planning, along with strong cross-sectoral coordination in providing social and environmental infrastructure. It is recommended that local governments develop adaptive policies in response to demographic dynamics to create livable, inclusive, and sustainable urban spaces. The findings of this research are expected to serve as a reference for future policy-making regarding the development of densely populated areas.
