Regional economic development needs to be planned and the benchmark is economic growth. Development in developing countries still prioritizes unemployment and poverty. Development in Indonesia to date still focuses on efforts to reduce the unemployment rate or open up job opportunities to reduce poverty. The level of poverty can be measured through the HDI (Human Development Index) which has three main indicators, namely health indicators, education level and economic indicators. There are many factors that hinder the development of an area, one of which is the high poverty rate. The problems of unemployment and poverty are still major issues that never end. Sidoarjo Regency has a decreasing number of poor people starting from 2021 at 137 people, in 2022 at 125 people and in 2023 at 119 people from a population of 2,238,069 people in 2021, 2,266,533 people in 2022, 1,996,825 people in 2023. The causes of poverty are the large number of children who have dropped out of school, limited public services (schools) which are difficult to reach, difficulty in getting health costs and the difficulty of people getting the necessities of life such as clothing, food and shelter. The aim of making a Study on the Role of the Health Index, Education Index and Purchasing Power Index on the Poverty Level of Sidoarjo Regency for 2010-2023, is to see the contribution of these three indices to changes in poverty levels in Sidoarjo Regency, both directly and indirectly, which will have an impact on change in poverty (number of poor people). It is hoped that this research can be used as consideration for Sidoarjo district in future community development so that they can live prosperously.  

This study aims to estimate the population in Minahasa Regency at t=7 or t=8 in 2026-2027 using a logistic population model. Based on data obtained from the Minahasa Regency Central Statistics Agency (BPS) from 2019 to 2022, it can be assumed that the capacity limit (K) = 400,000. The results of this research show that the accurate model to use in determining the estimated population of Minahasa Regency is the model with k = 0.0588644467, and the relative growth rate is 5.88% per year. Then, using the logistic method, the general form of the solution is obtained, namely P(t )=400,000/(e^(-0.0588644467t) (0.16921458)+1). Furthermore, the results obtained show that the predicted population of Minahasa Regency in 2026-2027 is 359,690 and 361,774 people.

Indonesia's rapid population growth requires the economy to grow at least 2.2% every year to keep per capita output stable. This results in high labor force growth that is difficult to overcome. Labor absorption must be in line with economic growth to prevent disparities. The processing industry sector plays a major role in the strategy for employment absorption and economic growth. This industry is also considered a leading sector in the economy, with a favorable exchange rate and creating higher added value. In Surabaya, economic growth and per capita income are higher than other areas in East Java. This city has great potential to develop promising sectors and encourage economic growth. Regional economic conditions, including GRDP, taxes, inflation, investment and other economic services, can reflect the success of a region.  

This research was studied to analyze the factors that influence economic growth in the area. This research will focus on analyzing the relationship between the open unemployment rate, population and poverty on the island of Sumatra. The aim of this research is to provide a deeper understanding of the factors that influence economic growth on the island of Sumatra. Poverty is a problem that covers many aspects because it is related to low income, illiteracy, low health status and inequality between genders and a poor living environment (Word Bank, 2004). Overcoming the problem of poverty cannot be done separately from the problems of poverty, education, health and other problems that are explicitly closely related to the problem of poverty. Poverty is one of the problems faced by developing countries, including Indonesia.

Uneven population distribution is a condition where the population in an area is not distributed evenly and regularly. Uneven population distribution can be seen between rural areas and urban areas. Factors that influence these conditions are geographical conditions, environmental conditions and economic development. Indonesia has a very large territory so it is difficult to evenly distribute the population. Uneven population distribution has positive and negative impacts on life. The positive impact is to encourage economic growth and improve infrastructure. The negative impact is social inequality, crime, and can trigger traffic jams.  

Improper population management will cause population problems, especially in work areas. Existing jobs have not been able to meet the employment needs resulting from the unemployment problem.

Poverty is one of the fundamental problems that is the center of attention of governments in any country. In almost all developing countries, the living standards of the majority of the population tend to be very low, not only when compared with the living standards of people in rich countries, but also with those of the elite in their own countries. This low standard of living is manifested in the form of very low levels of income or poverty (Todaro, 2006). Economic growth is believed to have a significant influence on reducing the amount of poverty. However, this influence may differ from one country to another. The state of income distribution, population, and urbanization have an important relationship in determining the influence that occurs between economic growth and reducing the amount of poverty (Hasan and Quibria, 2002).
