Abstract

The research method used in this research is the
historical research method (historical methodology). The
steps used in the historical method consist of topic
selection, heuristics, verification, interpretation, and
historiography. From this research, it is concluded that
the transmigration settlement was formed as a result of
the transmigration program in 1955-1957. The aim of the
transmigration program is to change the standard of
living for the welfare of the transmigrants for the better.
Each head of a transmigrant family gets 50 square meters
of land for the yard, and one hectare for agricultural land
as well as a 10-year living allowance. The hard work of
transmigrants in adapting to the new environment is not
easy. Developments in terms of social and economic
development are quite developed, with the existence of
community social activities that continue to run to
maintain friendship between fellow people, although now
many first generation transmigrants are no longer there,
but most of the objects of transmigration are inhabited by
descendants of transmigrants and live side by side with
each other. with descendants of the original inhabitants
as well as immigrants. In the economic field, the people
who initially only made a living as farmers are now
working as private employees, civil servants, TNI/POLRI.
Although most of them still make a living as vegetable
farmers or gardening, but now they are classified as
successful farmers with a promising income every time
they harvest.
