This research focuses on Budapest as the center of the Pest region and aims to analyze its development and functional importance through spatial analysis methods. The importance of this topic lies in the tendency to overestimate Budapest’s development at the national level, which often leads to neglecting the regional context. By examining the spatial patterns of development and connectivity, this research seeks to shed light on the unique role of Budapest as a necessary functional center within the region. The expected results will provide insights into the spatial dynamics of regional development and the implications of Budapest’s centrality for the broader region.
