The main purpose of the paper is to assess the comparative level of sustainable development of European Union countries. Posing such questions is particularly important in the case of such political and economic structures as European Union. The analyses conducted in the paper allow to track changes in individual EU countries, forming a single organism, but they are characterized by differing levels of development, with different resistance to the crisis of 2007−2008 and often completely different socio-economic realities. To study the spatial differentiation of social and economic development, on the basis of sustainable development indicators presented by Eurostat, the taxonomic measure of development based on median vector Weber was used. The results obtained in this study can be used in subsequent years to examine the direction of changes in sustainable development levels observed from the point of view of the EU Member States. The results obtained in the work confirm the significant differences between the EU countries in the field of sustainable development. These differences are especially visible between the countries located in different geographical area of Europe (such as Northern and Western Europe and Southern and Eastern Europe).
