Summary/Abstract: This study aims to present the indogenous developmental potential of the Sellye district. We examine the state of the internal capital factors of the area as well as determine indicators that can reveal the spatial structural characteristics of these factors. The main types of settlements of the district, along with the elements above were identified through a cluster analysis based on secondary statistical data. A hierarchical cluster analysis and Ward's method were used to form the clusters. The results show that the endogenous developmental potential of the Sellye district is low; the effects of the socioeconomic problems of the area are reflected in almost all of the examined capital factors. This is especially true for the most disadvantaged and least populated settlements of the district.
