Abstract

Poverty remains a critical socio-economic issue in Central Java, Indonesia, exhibiting significant regional disparities. This study aims to analyze the spatial distribution pattern of poverty rates in Central Java in 2024 using a spatial autocorrelation approach with an inverse distance weight matrix. Secondary data from the Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS) of Central Java is utilized, covering poverty percentages across regencies and cities. The analysis method involves Moran’s I to assess global spatial autocorrelation and Local Indicators of Spatial Association (LISA) to identify local spatial clusters. The findings indicate a positive Moran’s I value, suggesting a significant spatial dependence in poverty distribution. Several high-poverty clusters are identified in specific regions, confirming spatial concentration patterns. The study highlights that regional proximity influences poverty rates, where areas with high poverty tend to be surrounded by regions with similar conditions. These results provide empirical evidence for policymakers to design targeted poverty alleviation programs based on spatial characteristics. The study concludes that understanding spatial autocorrelation in poverty distribution is crucial for formulating effective regional development policies and reducing socio-economic disparities.
