Potentially influential spaces in the spatial networks of cities can be detected by means of the entropy participation ratios. Local (connectivity) and global (centrality) entropies are considered. While the connectivity entropy has a tendency to increase with the city size, the centrality entropy is decreasing that reflects the global connectedness of cities. In urban networks, the local and global properties of nodes are positively correlated that indicates the intelligibility of cities. Correlations between entropy participation ratios can be used in purpose of intelligibility measurements and city networks comparisons.
