Abstract

The problem of poverty is related to various regional conditions, not only in rural areas but also in urban areas. Poverty in urban areas has its own characteristics with various factors that influence it. This study aims to determine the role of economic growth, inflation, and population growth on poverty level. This was a quantitative study with path analysis and multiple regression analysis. The results of the study evidenced that economic growth had a significant effect on poverty level with a value (tcountof 2.896). Inflation (tcountof 0.096) and population growth (tcountof 0.726) had bo significant effect on poverty levels. Open unemployment rate variable (tcountof 1.721) and human development index (tcountof 1.255) also had no significant effect on poverty level. Based on these findings, efforts to allevite poverty level need to be pursued continuously by optimizing macroeconomic variables such as the rate of economic growth and controlling the inflation rate.
