“…A new list of indices was developed, and target values were also added to each criterion. For example, as a main spatial criterion, a ratio of minimum 20% of incoming commuters within the locally employed is required, which is can be fulfilled by majority of the potential new candidates, however, the important local labour centres are already possessing town rank (Pénzes et al 2015). A constantly growing population and the limit of 10,000 (!)…”

“…Although we have to note, that there are other delimitation approaches, for example, based on local labour system which is one dimension of functional urban areas (Pénzes, et al, 2014(Pénzes, et al, , 2015. In certain cases, delimitation based on real commuting and labour market processes may outline the regional catchment areas of regional centres more effectively (Pálóczi, et al, 2016;Pénzes, et al, 2014Pénzes, et al, , 2015. Nevertheless, these delimitations are difficult to utilise in regional competitiveness analyses as the borders change more dynamically than in the case of micro-regions or delimitations related to them.…”

The processes of economic globalization have transformed socio-economic spatial functioning of the territories. These trends caused international competition between countries, regions, and settlements. According to this, nowadays, the examination of competitiveness has become an important research question in economic geography. The aim of our study is to examine the scale-dependent processes of revealed competitiveness of agglomerations, agglomerating areas, and settlement groups in Hungary excluding the Budapest agglomeration. The study was based on quantitative research methods using an empirical database and mathematical statistical methods. Firstly, we conducted a Principal Component Analysis (PCA) of revealed competitiveness in different geographical scales and afterwards, we utilized the method of Spatial Autocorrelation on a settlement level. Our findings showed that there are significant spatial differences among the performance of the Hungarian urbanised areas. The east-west dichotomy considering competitiveness despite the European Unions' developmental funds is still present between Agglomerations, Agglomerating areas, and Settlement groups in Hungary. Moreover, according to our calculations, intra-regional polarization and scale mechanism are in connection with revealed competitiveness and it is justified by spatial autocorrelation.

“…The local labour systems of Hungary were delimited for the first time on the basis of the 2001 census dataset as part of a European research project (Radvánszki-Sütő, 2007). The original methodology was modified in the updated investigation including the results for 2011 as well (Pénzes et al, 2015).…”

The paper deals with the topic of functional regionalization and demonstrates some of the possible delimitation methodologies on the basis of commuting to work dataset provided by the 2011 census in Hungary. The main objective of the study is to compare the results of the different methods on the basis of the resulted territorial divisions, their centres and hinterlands. The method of local labour systems (LLS), the method of labour market areas (LMA) -called as EURO method -and the CURDS measure are introduced, applied and compared. The results of the calculations clearly demonstrate the different characters of the methods. The results of the LLS method are characterized by major disparities with an extremely extended Budapest LLS district. The EURO method results in a less extending central region around Budapest, however, the CURDS measure causes the most moderate inequalities among the functional regions with the smallest number of units. The differing character of the methods can be discovered in the centres as well. LLS centres indicate the polarizing character of the method preferring the largest centres, at the same time it gives possibility to the smaller centres to be delimited. The centres of the EURO method appear with the largest frequency and it gives the possibility that those centres are located in the surroundings of dominant centres. The CURDS measure is the 'strictest' one from this respect. The comparative results drew the attention to the differing character of centres in each part of Hungary.
