The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship of BUMDes activities with different business type criteria to community welfare in order to evaluate the role of BUMDes with various business type criteria to community welfare. This research is non parametric quantitative research in which the data will be analyzed by Mann-Witney to determine which variables are significantly different, while proving the hypothesis using the Kendall Tau Correlation test. The results of the Mann Witney test prove that there is a real difference in the indirect role of BUMDes on various criteria and show that there are differences in direct and indirect activities only in the type of trading business.  The results of hypothesis proving explain that the direct and indirect roles of BUMDes towards increasing income and fulfilling basic needs are significant (α < 0.05) in the types of savings and loan businesses; trade; services and livestock, while towards improving living standards are significant (α < 0.05) in the types of savings and loan businesses; trade; and services. The role of BUMDes is either directly or indirectly related to community welfare in several types of businesses.
