<![CDATA[Landslides are an important hazard for the community of Gunungsari Village, Karanggayam District, Kebumen Regency because the area is dominated by hilly terrain, several access roads are bordered by slopes, and nine landslide points occurred in one day on 6 December 2025. This study aims to analyze the level of community preparedness and emergency response arrangements for landslide hazards. A quantitative descriptive design was used. The study population consisted of 736 residents living in five landslide-prone hamlets. A sample of 89 respondents was determined using the Slovin formula with a 10% margin of error and selected through purposive sampling. Primary data were collected through observation and questionnaires, while secondary data were obtained from the village government, the Kebumen Regency disaster management agency, and supporting documents. The questionnaire used a five-point Likert scale and the data were analyzed with IBM SPSS Statistics 27 through validity testing, reliability testing, and mean calculation. All 30 questionnaire items were valid because their calculated correlation values exceeded the r-table value of 0.1755. All preparedness parameters were reliable, with Cronbach's Alpha values ranging from 0.634 to 0.780. The results show that the overall community preparedness mean was 3.54, which is classified as prepared. Knowledge and attitude had the highest mean of 3.76, followed by resource mobilization at 3.59, policy and guidelines at 3.54, and the early warning system at 3.52. The emergency response plan had the lowest mean of 3.29 and was classified as moderately prepared. Gunungsari Village already has evacuation routes, assembly points, a public kitchen, and an emergency room. The four evacuation routes are 2.00 to 2.60 m wide. However, Routes 3 and 4 include sections located near slopes that may be affected by landslides and obstruct evacuation. These findings indicate that preparedness should be strengthened through better understanding of evacuation procedures, regular drills, and routine maintenance of evacuation routes.]]>
