Time series data is used in this study, and panel data analysis conducted with eViews is used to apply quantitative descriptive analysis techniques. The Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS) is the source of information. The findings of this study indicate that: 1) Population growth rate has a significant and positive impact on poverty. 2) Poverty is significantly and negatively affected by population density. 3) The relationship between sex ratio and poverty is quite positive.
