This paper examines the factors affecting the process of poverty reduction in the Central Highlands region and across the country by comparing the difference between the two regions over the period 2001-2014. The binary logistic model is employed and the data is collected from the General Statistics Office of Vietnam. The results indicate that there are five factors influencing the process of poverty reduction including the age and gender of the household head; the highest educational level of family members; ethnography; and the supports from Vietnamese Government variables. It can also be concluded that the production land ownership variable has a significant effect on the process of poverty reduction for the Central Highlands region of Vietnam. However, the impact of this factor is not statistically significant for the whole country.
