Abstract

Serang City is the capital of Banten Province, whose existence is surrounded by regencies / cities in Banten province. The city of Serang, is currently a center of activity, and the center of migration from the surrounding regency areas which results in the rapid growth of the population of the city of Serang. Thus, of course, this population growth affects development, both physical development and non-physical development. Industrial development, for example, according to Bappeda Kota Serang (2015) in 2014 increased by 1,114 units compared to 2013 which was only around 1,000 units, then an increase in housing construction in 2015 has taken up an area of 89.95 km2. These two components will directly and indirectly change the physical structure of the city such as land conversion and change the urban ecosystem. Thus the available space will experience an increase in environmental burden, considering that the city of Serang only has an area of about 266.74 km2. This study aims to analyze the economic value of urban forests in the city of Serang based on people’s willingness to pay. This research method uses the total willingness to pay (WTP) value of visitors and the public with a contribution period per visit per year. The results of this study indicate the economic value of urban forests obtained at 141,828,000 / year.
