摘要：Community’s response and adaptive capacity is a one of the key roles on the disaster management and risk reduction program. This study is aimed to investigate the coastal community’s response and adaptive capacity due to tidal flood hazard in the Terboyo Wetan Village and Trimulyo Villages along the coastline of Semarang City. These two villages are suffered from tidal flood hazards, and further consequences are land subsidence hazards as the impact of man-made activity and worsened by industrial activity. The research is inductively attaining data and concluding the result as in a descriptive manner via questionnaire. The result reveals that the local communities are aware of the tidal flood hazard, but this understanding did not manage to support their decision to leave the area. The community has adapted the tidal flood by simple physical adaptation strategy, such as increase the floor level following the water level and making small dam to blocking water enter the house. This response is not sufficient and aesthetically not proper from the environmental point of view. From the community’s perception obtained during the research, it can be said that instead of taking the tidal flood as the risk, the community in the research area tends to neglect the hazard and considered that the tidal flood is no longer as threat towards their wellbeing.
