【 摘 要 】

BPS-Statistics Indonesia is responsible for collecting valid official data in Indonesia, which mainly depends on the sampling plan they used. The village classification into urban or rural group plays a significant role in the construction of the plan. So far, the classification has been based on a scorecard developed in 2010 consisting of 12 variables. With a certain threshold, each variable has several criteria that give a score. The total sum of the scores is then used to define the class of urban and rural. This study worked explorative to evaluate whether the scorecard is still proper to be implemented. Exploratory data analysis used in this study to analyzing data structures and patterns of the data distribution. Both of them will uncover unexpected things from the data. The result shows that variables i.e. population density, the percentage of agricultural households, the existence of kindergarten, the existence of cinema, the existence of hotel/pub/beauty shop, the percentage of household with cable phone and the percentage of household with electricity require more sensitive criteria and scorecard.
