The analyses are dune at the cities, counties, and communities levels on 2009, and covered SMA. It collected appropriate healthy cities indicators after reviewing literatures and interviewing experts in public health and planning fields. An analytic hierarchy process(AHP) was used to find the parameters among the indicators and produced index of healthy cities. For the result of expert survey, citizen's health condition(32.8%) was the first priority, and environment(28.4%) was second important one from the components of healthy cities. The following were healthcare service(2.5%) and socioeconomic factor(16.3%). As an index of healthy cities in SMA, Gangnam-gu(1.227), Seocho-gu(1.080), and Gwacheon-si(0.826) were top three regions. the regions of top 20% of healthy cities indices were clustered in southeast and downtown of Seoul, and southern part of Gyeonggi while the areas with bottom 20% located in islands in Inchoen and northeast Gyeonggi. This study contributes to provide indicators and index of healthy cities in Korea. It further provides useful insights into planners in monitering current systems and building appropriate policies.
