Abstract: The features of the creative city have a psychological influence on the inhabitants, causing an emotional attachment that comes secondly, only after the needs of job, safety and proper living conditions have been met; once these needs are met, the personal relationships and the lifestyle that develop, have the power to influence the choice to not migrate when the inhabitants would find more attractive job offers. So the possibilities concerning education are also essential when choosing a place where to settle; the cities are attracting, on one hand, the human resource due to the possibilities of professional training and the greater chances of finding a good job, and on the other hand, the cities are attracting companies interested in skilled labour pools, becoming so, professional clusters. This paper aims to assess and to analyse the local creative economy of seven important cities of Romania, all of them enjoying the characteristics of a creative city. The economic indicators concerned regard a quantitative analysis, more exactly, in terms of number of enterprises, number of employees and the turnover recorded in the creative and cultural industries during 2008 – 2017, and also a qualitative analysis by considering the three economic indicators related to the local populations. These approaches let us notice which city is more favourable for the development of the creative industries and also by comparing each local creative economy’s results with the national average we are able to assess the development of each creative city in the specific terms of the creative economy.
