The main aims of the study are to classify economic sectors and compare development priorities in an Indonesian district to determine suitable programs.Gross regional domestic product data for 2011-2022 was analyzed using static location quotient, dynamic location quotient, and shift-share analysis.The results of the study showed that the district's economic sectors were classified into mainstay, leading, and potential sectors.The mainstay sector consists of electricity and gas procurement, construction, wholesale and retail trade, car and motorcycle repair, and transportation and warehousing.The leading sectors are education services, manufacturing, information and communication, and financial and insurance services.The other nine sectors are potential sectors: agriculture, forestry, and fisheries; mining and quarrying; water procurement, waste management, waste and recycling; provision of accommodation and food drink; real estate; corporate services; government administration; defense, and compulsory social security; health services and social activities; and other services.The study implies that mainstay sectors are suitable as regional development priorities.Leading sectors can be the second priority.Potential sectors are not suitable as priorities for regional development.
