【 摘 要 】

The research is aimed to examine the sustainability of Almaty city as a largest city in the Central Asia. The literature review revealed lack of methodology for city sustainability assessment in developing countries. Proposed methodology of Denevizyuk was explored to calculate the Sustainable City Index for Almaty and demonstrate it's dynamics in last 9 years. As expected, environmental issues are becoming worse while economic and social parameters have positive trends and smooth out the final index growth.
