The topic of the research focused on small towns in peripheral areas (that is, outside metropolitan areas) in 3 voivodships in northern Poland (Pomeranian, Varmian- -Masurian and West Pomeranian). The author argues that the industry development in small towns can be an important development factor of peripheral areas. The author identifies the development level of the town industrial function and analyses their correlations with some of the features of the towns and their surroundings. He characterizes also most important industry in towns where the level of industry development is the highest. He is also searching for an answer to the question about factors of industry development in researched towns. In many cases in which spatial factors are difficult to explain by their configuration, coincidence can be said to play an important role.

The article presents the changes in size, structure and degree of diversification of the economic base in relation to the changes in the total number of working people (including employees of micro-businesses) in small mono-functional towns of the Podkarpackie Province in the years 1999-2009. The small mono-functional towns are assumed to be those which, before the transformation of the economic system in Poland, were specialized industrial towns with population in 2009 not exceeding 20 thousand. Pursuant to said assumptions, there was conducted an analysis of seven towns of the Podkarpackie Province: Nowa Dęba, Sędziszów Małopolski, Nowa Sarzyna, Jedlicze, Zagórz, Rymanów and Kańczuga. This allowed for determining of present-day functions of the previously mono-industrial towns.

In the area of one voivodeship can be distinguished cities with different surroundings, different pace and level of development.

The author travelled through the whole country starting from Slupsk to Krosno and from Suwalki to Walbrzych to see how nowadays people live in the cities which in 1989 lost status of capital of the voivodships. He met their history and he was talking with the inhabitants, as well he met with the entrepreneurs, artists, activists and teachers. He was visiting local workshops and cafes, fallen factories and dynamically developing companies, stations and McDonald's restorations. He was asking the people what are they proud of in their cities, what are they happy about and what they would like to "change". The structure of the review consists of two sections. In the first section there were presented generalizations concerning the analysed archipelago cities, in the second one there are problems related to functioning of the individual cities before and after the reform in 1989.
