Abstract: Abstract In the last years, the creation of public value in the smart cities (SC) is conceived as a strategic approach to public management based on the promotion of networked governance with the aim at improving the quality of life (QoL) of the cities’ residents (Rodríguez Bolívar, Proceedings of the 52nd Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences, 3325–3334, 2019). This chapter seeks to analyze whether SC are those with a higher QoL in the urban environment as well as to investigate the smart dimensions that could have an influence on the QoL of the cities’ residents. Findings based on a sample of European smart cities indicate that the smart city’s promise of increasing the citizen’s QoL is true, but it seems to be mainly focused on the outcomes (smart living dimension) and not on other smart dimensions that focus on the process to obtain the outcomes (smart governance, smart economy, or smart environment, for example).
