The purpose of this study is to draw the calculating indexes of city capacity and apply in practice. The 30's indexes as the primary calculating indexes of city capacity were chosen from the 750's indexes. The 12's final indexes including 'air clearness' were selected by a survey on the experts. And then the weights of the indexes were calculated by the AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process). The analysis showed that in upper hierarchy, the weight of infrastructure category was 0.515, that of environment category was 0.319 and that of culture-finance category was 0.166. In subclassification, the weight of public transportation capacity was 0.118 and it was the highest among the indexes. Finally, this study drew the capacities of the 7's metropolis in Korea based on the indexes and weights. The process of analysis consisted of data reduction, data standardization and calculating city capacity. It is expected that this study will give a clue to planning related to 'Green City' and 'Energy Saving City'.
