This study is significant in that it provides basic data for enforcing relevant policy by classifying basic local governments across the country into types according to the Balanced National Development Index. The analysis results reveal that, out of the 229 analysis target areas, 62 centering on Si(city) were classified as cluster 1, 73 centering on GU(borough) were classified as cluster 2, and 94 areas centering on GUN(county) were classified as cluster 3. A look into characteristics depending on regional type shows how cluster 1 demonstrated relatively more positive outcomes than clusters 2 and 3 in terms of ‘changing trends within the period’ such as rate of change in population and rate of change in the number of businesses. Next, cluster 2 indicated more positive outcomes than clusters 1 and 3 in terms of ‘facility access’, such as the percentage of infants and young children within daycare center service areas, the percentage of school-aged children within elementary school service areas, and the population percentage within library service areas. Cluster 3 exhibited a high level of outcomes in indices based on population numbers, such as the number of schools per 1,000 students and the number of cultural infrastructure facilities per 10,000 population. As cluster 3 centers on gun areas, these outcomes paradoxically assume the realities of local extinction as a result of population decreases in gun areas.
