Rapid urbanization in Indonesian cities such as Jakarta, Yogyakarta, and Bandung has led to increased population concentrations and a range of urban challenges. While numerous studies have explored sustainable city frameworks, limited research has examined the interdependencies among sustainability factors within the Indonesian context. This study addresses that gap by identifying key sustainable city characteristics that significantly influence urban development in Indonesia. A comprehensive literature review revealed 32 sustainability characteristics spanning environmental, social, and economic dimensions. These were then validated through a survey of eight urban planning experts from leading Indonesian universities using the Content Validity Index (CVI) method. The results indicate that 18 characteristics are critical to achieving urban sustainability. These findings highlight the importance of integrated policy interventions that focus on these validated characteristics to effectively address urban challenges. This study offers actionable recommendations for policymakers and urban planners to support the development of targeted, data-driven strategies for sustainable city implementation in Indonesia.
