Based on a study before, there was a result that said the average concentration of PM 2.5 was on 32 μg/m3. The result was over than the standard from WHO (25 μg/m3). Methods: This study was a descriptive study with a qualitative approach. The sampling technique that used in this study was snowball sampling. Results: there were two respondents (two houses) that has worse air quality because the level of PM 2.5 was over than the standard (25 μg/m3) on the house of E, PM 2.5 level raised on 35.66 μg/m3. And on the home of F, PM 2.5 level built on 32.66 μg/m3. Tha factor of the situation was the obedient of the respondent with RBAR program declaration, many vehicles around the house, and the house range was very tight. Conclusion: The results of PM 2.5 air quality measurements in homes in the neighborhood of smoke-free dwellings in the city of Yogyakarta were 62% or 6 respondents who had good air quality.
