This paper analyses the settlements' central function provision in West Herzegovina Canton. The settlement's centrality was determined based on the base groups of central functions: administration, education, health, supply, financial operations, post and telecommunications. After the collected and processed data, the settlements were classified into 4 categories of settlements based on the possession of certain functions; settlements without centrality, settlements with insufficient centrality, and settlements of the 3rd and 2nd rank of centrality.
