Analysis of Indicators of the Creative City and its Relationship with Healthy City DevelopmentCase Study: Isfahan Metropolis

Various theories and models have been proposed so far for the sustainable development of cities. Theories like healthy city and creative city can be mentioned in this regard. The main purpose of this study is to analyze the indicators of creative city and its relationship with healthy urban development management in metropolitan areas of Isfahan. Vikor model was used to analyze and measure the data and Shannon entropy coefficient was used in the process and finally Pearson correlation method was used. The results of this study show that Zone 3 was ranked first with a score of 1 and Area 5 with a score of 0.781. The lowest level is also in Region 12, with Regions 5 and 6 scoring 1 as the best in terms of city indicators. The lowest scores are for areas 15 and 11. Finally, after determining each area's score based on creative and healthy city indices, the relationship between these two approaches between Isfahan city areas is analyzed using Pearson's correlation coefficient. The results of statistical analysis show that there is a relationship between two main variables of the study. In fact, the level of significance is less than 0.05 and the correlation coefficient is positive. That is, there is a direct relationship between the two approaches in Isfahan. The results of regression analysis showed that the beta coefficient is equal to 0.614 which can be said that 60% of changes in creative city development can be predicted by healthy city indices.
