The cases were the people who had positive TB Acid-Fast Bacill(AFB). The controls were the people who were not affected by TB. The Odds ratio analyses were used to find the risk of variable by calculating confident interval. The analysis showed that the less lighting were 4.2 times (95%Cl  1.181-14.937), less ventilation were 5.571 times (95%CI  1.403-22.120) and over crowding were 3.987 times (95%CI  1.006-15.802) more likely to have TB cases.
