The designation of Surabaya as a city that serves as a national activity centre has led to its rapid growth. As a result, along with the growth and development, the people's interactions and movements also increase. The people mobilization and the regional compactness are used to evaluate the level of mobilization sustainability in Surabaya. The methods used in this research include mobility level analysis and compaction level analysis based on movement behaviour. The study's findings revealed that 43.41 % of the population had ideal movement, and 18.49 % were in the poor category. The level of regional compactness indicated that Genteng had the best level of compactness, owning a relatively close distribution of service centres in the district. The result of this study is expected to be applied to formulate urban spatial structures to encourage sustainable people mobilization behaviour.
