Smart city; Generations; Citizens.Abstract
Smart cities and digital cities have become commonplace in the debate on urban advancement, and these concepts can be confusing, as they may seem similar in theory, but in practice, the distinctions become more evident. The objective is to analyze the distinct perspectives of generations X, Y, and Z regarding the parameters and demands of a smart city. This consisted of a descriptive and quantitative study with citizens of a city in Paraná, totaling 200 interviews, using a non-probabilistic convenience sample, and application of the non-parametric test, Chi-Square. The main results revealed that, considering the responses "agree" in the city, 41% believe there is free internet; 18% say there are computers with internet access; 29% say the telecommunications infrastructure is good; 30% point out that there is digitalized information; 42% believe there is incentive for local development; 48% are satisfied with the employment and income opportunities; 42% consider the cost of living to be low; 59% feel safe; 48% see the city as clean and organized; 70% say education is of high quality; 60% consider public transportation adequate; 73% mention the presence of green spaces; 64% say basic sanitation is adequate; 76% consider treated water to be of good quality; and 40% say the city is transparent about ongoing projects. The indicators highlighted some differences of opinion between generations and suggest important actions for public administrators to improve their initiatives regarding the issues addressed in this study.
