Gorontalo is showing notable disparities in workforce across its 30 regencies and cities, according to the latest figures released by Indonesian Central Statistics Agency (BPS) — Web API. Total Population 15 years and over tops the provincial ranking with a reading of 949.65K people, while Pengangguran sits at the other end of the scale with 19.82K people. The findings, drawn from official 2025 data, offer a granular look at how this indicator plays out at the local level.

That headline disparity of 929.84K people between Total Population 15 years and over and Pengangguran is described as stark in scale, with the leading area posting a reading roughly 47.9 times that of the bottom-ranked locality. The figures bring into sharp relief the policy challenge of narrowing intra-provincial gaps in workforce.

The next tier of high performers comprises Total Penduduk 15 tahun ke atas at 946.30K people and Total Penduduk 15 tahun ke atas at 940.44K people, both of which clear the provincial average by a comfortable margin. Reading the rankings from the top, the picture is consistent: Total Penduduk 15 tahun ke atas (949.65K people), Total Penduduk 15 tahun ke atas (946.30K people), Total Penduduk 15 tahun ke atas (940.44K people) form a band of leading districts whose figures sit well above the Gorontalo mean.

Summed across Gorontalo, the figures produce an average of 312.09K people per district and a combined total of 9.36M people. The mean provides a useful yardstick: Total Population 15 years and over's reading is 204.3% above that benchmark, while Pengangguran comes in 93.7% below it.

Set against Indonesia's national picture, the Gorontalo figures reflect dynamics observed across much of the country: a concentration of higher readings in urbanised districts, and persistently lower values in less-densely populated or more remote areas. While the spread documented in the 2025 data is consistent with previous reporting cycles, the persistence of the gap underscores the difficulty of producing rapid convergence in workforce through standard policy levers alone.

At the other end of the scale, Pengangguran (19.82K people), Pengangguran (21.73K people), Pengangguran (22.42K people) register among the lowest readings in Gorontalo. The clustering of weaker figures in these districts highlights areas where targeted intervention may be required to lift outcomes closer to the provincial mean. Policymakers have previously flagged such pockets as priorities for capacity-building and resource allocation.

Data are sourced from Indonesian Central Statistics Agency (BPS) — Web API and form part of an ongoing series tracking employment conditions across Indonesia. For Gorontalo, the 2025 release includes readings for each of the 30 regencies and cities under the province's administrative purview.

Read in the round, the 2025 figures suggest that progress on workforce in Gorontalo is uneven, with a handful of leading districts pulling ahead while several outlying areas continue to lag. Bridging that gap is likely to remain a central theme of provincial and national policy in the coming years, particularly as Indonesia pushes to harmonise development outcomes across its diverse regions.
