Paiton

Paiton is an administrative district in Probolinggo comprising twenty villages near the coast. These communities including Jabungsisir, Jabungcandi, and Kalikajar sit at a low elevation and form a rural administrative unit managing the surrounding area.

The district developed from traditional farming settlements that gradually transformed into an administrative center. This shift allowed better coordination of the agricultural communities and their activities in the surrounding area.

Residents gather regularly for community events and traditional music performances that strengthen their social connections. These meetings reflect the importance of shared traditions in the daily life of the villages.

The district has administrative offices, schools, and transportation networks connecting all twenty villages to Probolinggo city. This infrastructure makes it easy to move between the communities and access basic services.

Farming here follows specific patterns shaped by the coastal location, where growers coordinate planting times with seasonal wind patterns. This connection between local weather and traditional farming methods guides agricultural practices throughout the year.
