Housing instigates a reflection on its concept, which can be interpreted only as the action of inhabiting, as well as a physical structure characterized by habitability. In order to discuss and define housing and habitability concepts to be used in Brazilian rural communities, a systematic literature review was developed, based on the CAPES Periodicals Portal, and eligibility criteria were applied, resulting in 37 articles for analysis and discussion. The articles analyzed presented sociological, environmental and sanitary points of view for the concept of housing, denoting the need for a differentiated look from the ways of life of its residents. This gave the definition of rural housing as a multifunctional physical structure, with internal and external spaces for housing and work support. Within this context, the concept of rural habitability attributes to rural housing characteristics appropriate to the realities of the countryside and the needs of its residents, ensuring a comfortable, healthy, safe architecture with access to quality public equipment and services. The concepts defined in this research of rural housing and habitability complement each other and imply the quality of life of rural residents. Then, it can be used in further studies in the fields of home sanitation and environmental health.
