This study aimed to determine the GRDP per capita growth rate in Central Sulawesi to community income distribution. The analysis tool used was regression statistics using data trends over the previous eight years period. The research result indicated that the GRDP per capita growth in Central Sulawesi within 2011-2018 period did not exhibit significant income distribution improvement. The high GRDP per capita growth rate is benefited by high-income individuals. On the other hand, people at the lower income levels could not benefit from economic development. Therefore, the community empowerment program and infrastructure development should be considered as main agenda of development in Central Sulawesi. It is conducted to ensure all community groups could benefit from access to economic opportunities and public services.
