This study aims to identify the leading sectors that make a significant contribution to the economy of Gunungkidul Regency and Yogyakarta City. Using a descriptive quantitative approach, the study utilizes secondary data in the form of Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) at constant prices from 2012 to 2023, obtained from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) of Gunungkidul Regency, Yogyakarta City, and the Special Region of Yogyakarta Province. The analytical methods employed include Location Quotient (LQ), Shift Share, and Klassen Typology to measure comparative advantage, growth, competitiveness, and the classification of economic sectors. The analysis results indicate that there are six leading sectors in Gunungkidul Regency and twelve leading sectors in Yogyakarta City. These findings reflect the differences in economic structure and development dynamics between the two regions. Based on the results of this study, it is expected that local governments can optimize the development of sectors that are not yet leading but have potential, thereby encouraging more balanced and equitable economic growth across all regions.
