The study every type of development we need to measure the indicators and factors which this study after the review of the information community index and their aggregate and localization has been allocated to clustering of the information in Khorasan Razavi province. The main questions in this study are: 1) How is the ranking of development base on information society’s indicators? 2) Is there relationship between given clustering and development’s ranking in the khorasan razavi? The results of Cluster analysis shows Mashhad area is alone in a cluster and the rest areas are in the second cluster. So، if we remove city of Mashhad in analysis، we can group the rest areas into three clusters. On the other hand، that clustering shows proximate relationship with other indicators of development such as the level of social development، human development and infrastructure development. On the base of total findings، we conclude that Mashhad city as the political center and the main pole of the province’s development، has concentrated mostly infrastructures and information society’s indicators. Due to the future comprehensive development of regions and cities are based on the information society، should have doubled attention to the balanced development of this province.
