        abstract = {Introduction: Disasters can happen anytime, anywhere and can affect anyone. Geographically, Indonesia is located
at the confluence of three plates world tectonics, namely the Australasia plate, the Pacific plate, the Eurasian plate
and Philippines. This causes Indonesia to be geologically vulnerable and is one of the parts of the world that has a
complex seismonic system with a fairly high frequency of earthquakes. The potential for earthquakes, both on land
and at sea, is very high. Earthquakes with a magnitude of 6-9 Ms are common. The potential for physical and economic damage and losses due to disasters, the highest is for the threat of an earthquake. In general, the main factor is
the number of fatalities, damage, and losses incurred arising from the disaster is the lack of understanding and awareness of the community towards disaster risk in the region. This results in awareness vigilance, and preparedness in
dealing with disasters are still very not enough. The purpose of the study was to determine the level of community
preparedness in dealing with the tsunami. Methods: Descriptive research design used was survey method. The research population was 980 households in Kunjir and Waymuli villages, with 284 samples were taken by cluster random sampling. The instrument was based on LIPI-NESCO/ISDR 2006. Data were processed with SPPS 20 to obtain
a frequency distribution Preparedness level community. Results: The results showed that the level of community
preparedness from the aspect of knowledge and attitudes, early warning system, and resource mobilization were
mostly in the good category, while the planning aspect in dealing with disasters was mostly in the sufficient level. It
is concluded that the level of community preparedness is good. Conclusion: The level of community preparedness
is in the good category. The research recommendation is that the community should get assistance in planning for
the tsunami disaster to reduce the number of victims in the event of another tsunami}
