The Central Statistics Agency (BPS) recorded 5,555 villages/sub-districts in Papua Province in 2021. These villages/sub-districts are spread across an area of 319,040 square kilometers.

Based on topography, 134 villages/sub-districts (2.41%) in Papua Province are located in mountainous or hilly regions.

Furthermore, 3,702 villages/sub-districts (66.64%) are located on slopes or ridges, and 1,557 villages/sub-districts (28.03%) are located in flat or plains areas.

There are also 162 villages/sub-districts (2.92%) located in valleys or areas lower than the surrounding plains.

The large number of Papuan people living in hilly or mountainous areas hinders the equitable distribution of welfare.

Until September 2021, there were 944,490 people (27.38%) recorded as poor in Papua Province.

In several districts, more than one-third of the population also lives in poverty, such as in Jayawijaya, Yahukimo, Paniai, Puncak Jaya, Deiyai, and Intan Jaya.
