The growth center (growth pole) can be interpreted in two ways, namely functionally and geographically. Functionally, a growth center is a location for the concentration of business groups which, due to the nature of their relationships, have elements of dynamism so that they are able to stimulate economic life both internally and externally. Viewed geographically, a growth center is a location that has many facilities and conveniences so that it becomes a center of attraction (pole of attraction) which causes various kinds of businesses to be interested in locating in that area and people are happy to come to use the facilities at that location. The criteria for a growth center are that it is a fast-growing region, has a leading sector and has economic interaction with the region behind it (Sari, 2021)
