Summary/Abstract: We aim to present in our study a new aspect of the smart city concept which moves from a technology-centred approach toward a people-centre done. In this interpretation improvement of quality of life and happiness is not a segment, but the ultimate goal of smart cities. Happiness, wellbeing and quality of life have become an important topic in social sciences, but received less attention in regional studies. The author presents the spatial aspects of happiness and in the end the paper outlines how incorporation of happiness and well-being into the smart city surveys helps to promote a better understanding and examination of the more comprehensive and ultimate goal of cities: being inclusive, better quality of life offering settlements.
