The article presents the assessment of urban development measured mainly by the service level and dynamics of changes in the field of technical infrastructure. This kind of analysis can give some long-term overview of social, economic and spatial phenomena. The objects of the research were 28 cities - former regional centers that lost their status due to administrative reform in 1999. The changing of the administrative significance of these cities was assumed to be an important external factor that might adversely affect their development. A multi-indicator analysis concerning the infrastructure issues was worked out for the years 2001- 2016 on the basis of statistical data of the Central Statistical Office, available in Local Data Bank (LDB). The obtained results for individual indicators enabled rating the technical infrastructure development of the studied cities. Furthermore, diversity and spatial distribution of the urban units with high, medium and low rates of technical infrastructure development were presented.

The analysis of the income situation of units of local self-government (entities of local government) based on achieved income, which include most of the sources of income of their own, can determine the long-term ability of these entities to finance their activities. Their own income potential allow local government units to create their own financial policy within the framework of existing law, so it is one of the important factors of sustainable local development. Among the communes, the lowest level of their own income potential distinguishes rural communes. However, these entities are highly diverse in this regard. With the socio-economic development, and especially after Poland’s accession to European structures, the functions performed by rural communes (from the typical agricultural to residential and service functions), and especially those located in the vicinity of the largest cities, are changing. Change of functions performed by rural communities, especially those located in the so-called. Metropolitan areas, translates into a change in the level and structure of their own income of these entities. The main aim of the paper is to analyze the level and structure of own income potential of rural communities in the Poznań Metropolitan Area in the years 2004-2016. Empirical studies were conducted based on data from the Local Data Bank of the Central Statistical Office, which were processed using basic descriptive statistics methods.

A commune’s own income potential, indicative of financial self‑sufficiency, underpins the ability of its government to foster local growth. Accurate recognition of the potential levels necessary for improvement of development policies requires that, apart from considering communes’ own potential, neighbouring communes’ potential should be taken into account, especially if the neighbours are large urban centres of substantial demographic and economic capacity. This article aims to examine spatial autocorrelation of income potential of metropolitan communes of Warsaw, Poznań, Wrocław, and Cracow metro areas in 2014. The study draws on data published by the Central Statistical Office in the Local Data Bank and uses the R programme packages, such as spdep, maptools, and shapefiles for calculations.

The aim of the study was to assess the income potential of rural communes and to compare it to other administrative types in Wielkopolska province in 2005-2016, with particular emphasis on the Metropolitan Area of Poznań (POM). The research drew on data from the Central Statistical Office (Local Data Bank) and found income potential of rural communes of the province to be the lowest of all types of communes, with low values of own income per capita and financial self-sufficiency index. On the other hand, POM rural communes had higher own income potential compared to rural communes outside of POM or to other types of communes inside POM. The analyzed period saw increased shares of PIT revenues in the budgets of rural and urban-rural communes, which by 2016 were the most important source of own income in all groups of surveyed communes.

he aim of this study was to determine the sustainability degree of local development for counties of the Mazowieckie (Mazovian) Voivodship in the years 2006-2015. Research was conducted on a population of 42 counties (territorial units at NUTS 4 level), including 5 town counties (towns possessing county status) and 37 land counties. Basing on data from the Local Data Bank of the Central Statistical Office, three dimensions of development were investigated: economic, social and ecological (environmental). The author’s conceptual approach, incorporating dimensional indexes of development and Euclidean distance analysis, was applied to capture the interactions between and balance across the three pillars of sustainability. Through the results of the study, it is observed that the highest degree of local development sustainability was achieved by counties located up to 50 kilometres from Poland’s capital city Warsaw (i.e. grodziski, grójecki, nowodworski, otwocki, sochaczewski, wołomiński and żyrardowski), while the lowest by towns with a county status (Ostrołęka, Płock and Warsaw) and by peripheral counties of the east and south part of the Mazovian Voivodship (siedlecki, przysuski, lipski and zwoleński). In the 2015 ranking, according to the sustainability degree of counties, the first three spots were taken by ciechanowski, przasnyski and sochaczewski counties. The following town counties took the last three positions: Ostrołęka, Płock and Warsaw.

The aim of the study was to compare the housing conditions of the population living in rural and urban areas of Wielkopolska province communes. The multidimensional assessment of housing conditions was carried out using the TOPSIS method. The research drew on 2016 data published by the Central Statistical Office in the Local Data Bank. The housing conditions in rural areas of the Wielkopolska province were found to be significantly worse than in urban areas. Over 38% of all examined urban areas and only 5% of rural areas (mainly located in the Poznań Metropolitan Area) were classified as Class I with the highest level of housing conditions. Class IV – with the lowest level of housing conditions – included as many as 25% of rural areas and only one urban area located in a mixed, urban-rural commune. In many of the studies, dynamic, beneficial changes in housing conditions in rural areas are emphasized despite the continuous worse situation of rural areas compared to cities. However, due to the observed suburbanisation processes in rural areas in the vicinity of large urban agglomerations, it would be necessary to distinguish living transformations in these rural areas, from changes in housing conditions in rural areas that perform typical agricultural functions.

The Relationship

The article is an attempt to verify the hypothesis that the tourist function in Polish health resorts is becoming increasingly diversified. It presents data concerning the capacity and type of accommodation in three Kujawy health resorts, as well as their amenities. The data was provided by the Local Data Bank at the Central Statistical Office (GUS), and refers to the period between 1995 and 2018. The study findings point to the increasingly diversification of the tourist function in Kujawy health resorts. The greatest changes have been identified at Ciechocinek which can currently be defined as a tourism and health resort. Less advanced changes have been found in Inowrocław, while Wieniec-Zdrój still remains a typical spa with a marginal share of other functions. Based on official statistics, the author has identified general trends taking place in health resort infrastructure. Only a limited quantitative analysis of the relationship between the health and tourist functions of Kujawy health resorts has been made, mostly due to the incompleteness of the statistical data.

Abstract The objective of the article is to identify and explain the relationship between spa services distribution and spa specialization in Kujawsko-Pomorskie, Pomorskie and Podkarpackie Voivodeships spa communes. Correlation and regression analysis were used based on data from the Local Data Bank and unpublished data sets from the Central Statistical Office of Poland. In order to explain the relation between spa services distribution and spa specialization, time-series analysis was used. In five of nine researched communes (Horyniec-Zdrój, Solina, Ustka, Ciechocinek and Inowrocław) there is a functional relationship between spa services distribution and spa specialization.

Synthetic Assessment

The main objective of this article is to assess the level and identify occurring differences in the level of housing conditions of the population of rural municipalities in a selected metropolitan area in Poland in 2004 and 2019. The Poznań Metropolitan Area (POM) was analysed. Studies were carried out based on data from the Local Data Bank of Statistics Poland (Polish Central Statistical Office). In the first stage of the study, selected indicators that illustrate the housing conditions of municipalities situated in the POM in comparison with other rural municipalities in the Wielkopolskie voivodeship were evaluated. In the second part of the study, a synthetic assessment of the level of housing conditions and their changes over time in rural municipalities located in the POM was carried out using the TOPSIS method. As a result of ongoing demographic changes in rural areas around Poznań, associated with the phenomenon of suburbanisation and the change in the functionality of these areas, which perform residential and service functions increasingly often, the level of housing conditions of the population is clearly improving. Better housing conditions distinguish rural municipalities situated in the POM in relation to other rural municipalities outside this area, yet the latter are distinguished by higher dynamics of changes in housing conditions in numerous study aspects.

Current Stage

The article describes the changes that have taken place over 11 years in the development of technical infrastructure of the Kampinoski National Park (KPN) municipalities. The availability of waterworks and wastewater systems is important both in the context of health protection as well as for the preservation of unique natural values of KPN. Regarding that, a multifactoral analysis was performed for the time period 2004-2014 by increments of 5 years, ex. for 2004, 2009, 2014 etc. with the use of statistic data provided by Central Statistical Office of Poland (GUS) in the Local Data Base (BDL). The assessment of the socio-spatial availability is based on factors referred to surface or population. The analysis made it possible to point on differences in terms of living standards of the inhabitants of municipalities significantly influenced by nature. The graphical attachments show not only the current stage but also the dinamics of changes of technical infrastructure considered on the inhabitant service level which stands a base for a sustainable development.
