Public perception of landslides (aspect of conation) classified as good of ( 45.95 % ). Landslide disaster management efforts by the government in terms of utilization of early warning and prevention efforts require funding. Landslide disaster management efforts by local governments (BPBD) are less in terms of hazard warning signs, monitoring the implementation of regulations on spatial planning, building permits, relocation of residents who are in landslide-prone areas, satisfaction of basic needs and education of disaster.
