Malnutrition is a disease whose incidence in Indonesia is increasing. Based on data from West Java Province, in 2019-2022 there were 1,986,890 toddlers who experienced nutritional problems. This high figure shows that the problem of malnutrition has not received adequate attention. This research will group districts and cities in West Java into three clusters. Cluster 1 (high), cluster 2 (medium), and cluster 3 (low) are based on the number of toddlers affected by malnutrition. It is hoped that this research can help the government in making decisions to overcome nutritional problems in West Java. The results of research on clustering cases of malnutrition in West Java using the K-Means algorithm include 3 clusters, Cluster 1 (high) which consists of 16 city districts. Cluster 2 (medium) consists of 10 city districts, Cluster 3 (low), while in the K-Medoids algorithm Cluster 1 (high) consists of 10 city districts. Cluster 2 (medium) consists of 4 city districts. Cluster 3 (low) consists of 13 districts and cities. The comparison results show that the K-Means algorithm is better using 3 clusters based on evaluation using the Silhouette Coefficient with a value of 0.617
