The research method used is the quantitative method through descriptive analysis and correlation analysis. This study uses secondary data from the Central Bureau of Statistics and the Google Mobility Report. The results of this study explain that the total inflation rate has a strong correlation with people's mobility to the central location of the economy. Inflation of primary commodities found in the Food, Beverage, and Tobacco group and the Housing, Electricity, and Fuel group has a weak correlation with the level of community mobility.
