The area of Zachodniopomorskie voivodship is characterized by specific features, resulting from its position in space. The location of the regional capital Szczecin at the mouth of the River Odra and near the Polish-German border, in the close vicinity of well-developed Nordic countries, and on the outskirts of the region creates special conditions for development. At the same time, the considerable remoteness of most small towns from the capital region and the inadequate network of connections in a natural North-South direction make it difficult to work with the assets of larger centres of development like Szczecin and Koszalin. The present approach is based on Webb’s typology for the gminas of Zachodniopomorskie voivodship compared with the analysis of the characteristics of the transportation network. Traffic volume of real transportation network was simulated by using a model based on the idea of intervening opportunities. Two categories of movements were analysed: movements to work and, due to the specificity of the region, tourists’ movements.

The aim of the study was to determine the demographic types of all small cities in Poland in 2013 and to identify the standards of their spatial diversity. The following questions were posed: Which demographic types are dominant among the small cities of Poland? Is there a relation between a specific demographic type and the size of the city? Does the structure of small cities according to their demographic types relate to their distance from main roads and urban agglomerations? The study applied the Webb’s typology, the K. Doi leading element method, the departure from average indicator, and the nonparametric Chi squared test. The spatial regularities were identified based on the created maps. The results of the study show that small cities of Poland in 2013 were represented by all demographic types, but most of them were regressive. They were established in 80% of small cities. The main element determining the population trends of small cities was the negative migration balance, which was observed in 80% of the surveyed areas. It was also established that the population of small cities has a slight impact on population trends. The most important aspect of their development is the distance from agglomerations and main roads.

Zróżnicowanie uwarunkowań społeczno-ekonomicznych jest głównym czynnikiem przemian demograficznych zwłaszcza w zakresie dynamiki zaludnienia państw. Zmienność tej dynamiki szczególnie uwidocznia się w krajach Europy. Celem niniejszego opracowania jest próba typologii zaludnienia krajów Europy na tle zmienności poziomu parametrów ruchu naturalnego i salda migracji oraz odpowiedź na pytanie: „Na ile zmiany te korelują z przynależnością do grupy państw Unii Europejskiej (UE)?”. Z przeprowadzonej typologii metodą Webba oraz analizy składowych ruchu naturalnego i salda migracji wynika, że procesy zmian w zaludnieniu i ruchu ludności w krajach europejskich mają charakter regionalny oraz wiążą się z uwarunkowaniami społeczno-politycznymi i ekonomiczno- gospodarczymi poszczególnych regionów. Zarówno w grupie państw przynależnych do UE, jak i będących poza jej strukturami można doszukać się wielu podobieństw i różnic wyrażających się w zmianach wskaźników ruchu ludności oraz w dynamice procesów demograficznych.

The diversity of socio-economic conditions is a major factor causing demographic changes especially in the field of population of countries. The variability of these changes is evident in particular regions of Europe. The aim of the study is to determine the demographic types of European countries in 2005–2025 against the levels of natural increase and net migration rate. Webb’s method is employed to distinguish types of demographic changes. The following question were posed: “Does membership in UE determine demographic development in Europe?” Similarities as well as differences between EU and non-EU countries has been found. Changes in population are rather determined by social, economic and political conditions and have regional character.
