Abstract
Distribution of population density in Polish towns and cities
Highlights
The issue of the distribution and evolution of population configurations is one of those raised more regularly in the fields or urban geography and economics
In line with methodological development, there has arisen a concept whereby changes in population density are set in the broader context of the development of urban areas (Korcelli 1969, Mydel & Ishimizu 1985)
The concept has recently been invoked in the case of Poland by Stępniak (2012), the author revealing regularities to temporal/spatial phases in the concentration and deconcentration of housing construction in Warsaw between the end of the Second World War and today
Summary
The issue of the distribution and evolution of population configurations is one of those raised more regularly in the fields or urban geography and economics. The most important of the regularities revealed and described is the distribution of population density in relation to distance from the centre. Data on numbers of inhabitants in statistical districts were recalculated for zones of concentration of radius 0.5 km, delineated outwards from the centres of towns and cities (with some analysis making use of 1 km intervals).
