The environmental health is one of the most important aspects to achieve satisfactory quality of human life. It is directly related to basic sanitation services, normally offered by the public institutions, and adequate living conditions and the existence of appropriate socio-economic and cultural policies. In this way, this work deals with the relationship that unifies aspects of environmental health of a population with good housing conditions. An integrated analysis of the variables that represent the environmental health is made, applying it to municipality headquarter of Itaguaçu da Bahia - BA and three sites located in the Rio Verde basin. A methodology to prioritize actions that can improve the environmental quality of sites is proposed. The ISA/JP - Indicator of Environmental Healthy developed by the technical team of the State Council of Sanitation of the State of São Paulo (SÃO PAULO, 1999) and the indicator of housing conditions Icm developed by Silva (2006) were used. Criteria are defined to prioritize actions that could improve the quality of the environmental and housing, as defined. The integrated analysis of the results of the indices of Environmental Health and Housing Conditions was based on an integrative multiobjective approach that makes use of two-dimensional representation on the field of possible solutions of the indicators involved. The description of the joint state of these variables is attempted based on the methodology of integrated environmental watershed used by UNESCO (1987). The four sites analyzed showed similar results with respect to its low state of environmental health and coincidentally a deficit in services related to sanitation and socioeconomic aspects. The ICM showed greater variation between study sites and the highest values occurred where GDP per capita (headquarter municipality and Rio Verde) is higher and certainly it is a factor directly linked to adequate living conditions. With regard to the actions proposed by the integrated analysis, improvements in sanitation and the structure of the houses were the most frequently pointed in the search for better quality of the environmental and housing for the four communities.
