The Aceh Tenggara region is located in an tectonically active region and it can be categorized as the prone-area. Historically, there were many major earthquakes occured the active fault called the Tripa segment that has generated massive damages and losses. The study of the seismic vulnerability around the highly populated city in the Aceh Tenggara region, Kutacane City, as the center of economy and office activities must be conducted to prepare the suitable earthquake mitigation program. The microtremor have been recorded at 25 sites with one km grid interval between all points. The record lengths have 30 minutes duration at each site, and they were measured with the Taurus Seismometer in miniseed format. The data were analyzed by using the HVSRpy in order to obtain the Horizontal to Vertical Spectral Ratio for each site by means of the geometric-mean and the multiple azimuths methods. Both methods provided a similar result at both focuses with dominant frequency of 0.8 Hz at the AT01 site and 4.8 Hz at the AT14 location. The preliminary result shows that the higher dominant frequency were recorded along the southern part of the Kutacane city which is associated with the Alas formation. © The Authors, published by EDP Sciences.
