Adolescents are an important assets to determine whether a country will be advance in the future. A good nutrient intake is needed to ensure their growth and development. Lack of nutrients will cause various health problems, one of them is anemia. Anemia is influenced by many factors, including spatial factors. The authors examine the relationship between anemia and variables that affect it. The relationship may be influenced by regional or spatial factors. Total data 602 of adolescents in nine sub-districts in Banda Aceh were analyzed using GeoDa software. The results of this study revealed that the number of cases of anemia in adolescents in Banda Aceh is no correlated with nutritional status, nutrient intake, breakfast habits, anemia knowledge, parental income, and the number of family covered, except in Kuta Alam and Lueng Bata Sub-districts. The numbers of cases of anemia in adolescents in Kuta Alam Sub-district are more correlated with nutritional status, nutrient intake, breakfast habits, anemia knowledges, parent’s income, and numbers of family covered. The number of cases of anemia in adolescents in Lueng Bata Sub-district is more correlated with nutritional status, and the number of family covered. Thus, for nutrient intake, anemia knowledge and parental income, they are no correlated with the number of anemia cases.
