This study aimed to determine the social factors of low birth weight in working area of Sudiang Health Center, Biringkanaya, Makassar in 2019. This was observational study with case control design. The comparison of case and control was 1:1. About 28 cases were selected with purposive sampling technique. Data were analysed with chi square test and odds ratio calculation. The results showed that social demographic factors such as knowledge (OR=4.50), attitudes (OR=1.56), behaviours (OR=6.60), health status (OR=2.06), and family support (OR=2.81) influenced the low birth weight in infants.
