Increasing population mobility from rural to urban areas exerts various implications on transportation planning, regional development, and infrastructure provision. This study aims to investigate the impact of economic, infrastructural, and social factors on individual travel habits between Wae Belang Village and Ruteng City in Manggarai Regency. The methodology employed in this research is quantitative, adopting a positivist perspective approach. The research population comprises all residents of Wae Belang Village traveling to Ruteng City, with a sample of 100 participants selected utilizing the Cochran formula and a simple random sampling method. Data analysis techniques include instrument validity and reliability testing, classical assumption tests (normality, multicollinearity, and heteroskedasticity), multiple linear regression analysis, and hypothesis testing (t-test and F-test). The results indicate that the economic factor shows a significance level of 0.190 and the infrastructure factor stands at 0.128, implying that both variables do not significantly influence commuter mobility. Conversely, the social factor exhibits a positive and significant influence, reflected by a regression coefficient of 0.405 and a significance level of 0.000. Simultaneous testing demonstrates that these three elements significantly affect residents' travel behavior, as evidenced by a calculated F-value of 13.746 and a significance value of 0.000.
