This study aims to determine the quality of life among individuals living with hypertension in urban areas: Gweru. The study was a cross-sectional quality of life (QOL) survey relying on quantitative data. One hundred hypertensive patients aged 18 years and above and those attending the Gweru Provincial Hospital were recruited using simple random sampling technique. The results revealed lower QOL in social relationships domain compared to other domains and differences in QOL across patients’ demographical characteristics. Given the results, encouraging more in physical activities and strengthening treatment adherence should be considered to improve QOL of hypertensive individuals, especially for social aspect.
