In light of the dimension of sustainable development that seeks to ensure the right to a healthy environment and population s health through an environmental sanitation of quality, was elaborated a study about the environmental salubrity of the rural community Saramém, in the town of Brejo Grande in the state of Sergipe, having as main objective the analysis of the influence of environmental salubrity in its housing and its population, by adapting the Indicator of Environmental Salubrity - ISA. The original model, used as the basis of this research, presents itself as a major instrument to measure the health of an environment, allowing flexibility to adjustments to it. Denominated here as ISA / SAR, this adequacy to the reality studied of the indicator model ISA used the following sub-indicators: Sub-Indicator of Water Supply, Sub-indicator of Sanitation Sewage, Sub-Indicator of Solid Waste, Sub-Indicator of Public Health, Sub-Indicator of Housing Characteristics, Sub-Indicator of Housing Satisfaction and Neighborhood, Sub-Indicator of Communitarian Public Space and Sub-Indicator Socio-Economic. The data used to feed it were collected in the field by different sources: in a sample of households in the community and state and local public organs. From the results obtained it was found that the infrastructure network of environmental sanitation existing in the community Saramém impairs it same, producing an environment with low health, affecting thus the health of its population. Its main shortcomings are related to communitarian public space, particularly its roads, which added to the others factors associated to the environmental sanitation of the community, demonstrate the urgency of an intervention by the Public Power as well as a more active attitude of its population as the understanding of their responsibility for maintaining the health of the environment they inhabit and their own.
