Summary/Abstract: The authors have developed a conceptual framework aimed at analyzing sustainable development and city ranking. This framework relies on specific standardised criteria and smart city metrics.The aim of this research is to accentuate the differences in the corresponding characteristics and factors by measuring individual indicators, different factors for individual criteria for medium and small towns. Guidelines and perspectives for further development will be determined through the built model. The measured values of individual factors will represent a database, on the basis of which cities can be ranked, i.e. identify advantages and disadvantages, determine their diversity, as well as comparative advantages in the region, in order to increase sustainability.
