An analysis of existing approaches to assessing the digital readiness of citizens formed the basis for the development of an index for such an assessment. The index proposed in the article was calculated based on data obtained during a survey of the population of 11 cities in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). The number of respondents amounted to 341 people. The value of the digital readiness index of citizens in the cities studied showed that the level of digital trust of survey participants is significantly higher than the level of digital skills, and the level of digital skills does not affect the level of citizens’ trust in digital technologies.
