Sweden was the country that predominantly took the leading position in terms of the implementation of SDG 11 in the years 2010–2020; other leaders included Ireland, Denmark, Finland, the Czech Republic, Austria, Malta, and Estonia. Romania most often ranked in the last position. Moreover, Finland and Ireland were always ranked among the top 10. The general conclusions allow it to be stated that the situation related to the implementation of SDG 11 in the European space has been gradually improving.
