This study aims to investigate the QOL of the riverside community living in Bahau which is an area in Negeri Sembilan, Malaysia.

The survey method was employed to obtain the data while SPSS was performed to run suitable and relevant analyses. Generally, the analyses confirm that rural communities living near to Muar and Serting rivers in Bahau have a moderate QOL.
