Tirto Urban Village is one of the locations for slum upgrading. This urban village is located about five km from the coast, but it is one of the relatively slum. Slum environmental conditions are caused by rob. The improvements made in the Tirto Village are upgrading in clean water, drainage, roads, street lighting and open space. The existence of improvements has improved the environmental image, but now the environmental conditions have declined again. Declining environmental conditions indicate a decline in the quality of life of the community. This is contrary to the purpose of slum upgrading. The purpose of this study was to examine changes in the quality of life of community in Tirto Urban Village after slum upgrading. The research approach used is quantitative research. The study was conducted in 4 RW-s in Tirto Urban Village with sample of 94 households. The research data consisted of primary and secondary data. Primary data obtained from distributing questionnaires. Secondary data was obtained from BKM, Tirto Village Office and Bappeda. The analysis used was scoring. The results of the study showed that there were changes in aspects of quality of life after the slum upgrading. These changes take the form of improving the quality of life of the community. This study uses five aspects as sub-variables of quality of life. The four aspects experienced an increase, but there was a decrease in one of them. The aspect that has decreased is the aspect of recreational and play opportunities (RPO). Decreasing RPO aspect is closely related to decreasing open space conditions. This decrease in condition is caused by rob with a high enough intensity. There needs to be repairs to open space, in the following ways: improving the quality of the land surface, addition of vegetation and improvement of physical attributes.
