The trend of income distribution inequality in DKI Jakarta has been decreasing since 2014. Statistics Indonesia (Badan Pusat Statistik) recorded a Gini ratio of 0.41 for DKI Jakarta in March 2016, lower than in March 2015. Therefore, since 2014, Jakarta's Gini ratio has shown a decline. In fact, by September 2016, the DKI Jakarta Gini ratio further decreased to 0.397, meaning that income distribution inequality in the capital city falls into the low category.
The Gini ratio is an indicator used to illustrate income inequality or disparity, with a value ranging from 0 to 1. A value of 0 indicates perfect equality, while a value of 1 indicates perfect inequality. If the Gini ratio is less than 0.4, the level of inequality is low. If the Gini ratio is between 0.4 and 0.5, the level of inequality is moderate, and the level of inequality is high if the Gini ratio is above 0.5.
