Population changes and population ageing in Poland between 1960 and 2011

Abstract: The paper presents a study of changes in the overall population of Poland and in the number and proportion of the 60+ age group. Popular census data spanning the period 1960-2011 was analysed at the level of commune-equivalent units (LAU 2). The study identified 9 types of communes based on two criteria: absolute population change and the proportion of the 60+ age group.

“…Other phenomena which occur in Poland, with different intensity, include the functional transformations and urbanization of villages, outside the suburban zones. On the one hand, it is noticeable that a lot of villages are depopulated and some towns shrink, which is related to depopulation [48][49][50][51][52], and on the other hand, popularization of the phenomenon of second homes [53], increasingly brave entering of large-surface trade into rural areas [54], or even direct "revival" of some villages [55]. After the economic and political transformation, urban and rural regions were shaped, and within their limits "town-village" transition zones, i.e.…”

“…Ponadto rozkład powojennych wyżów i niżów demograficznych oraz wydłużająca się przeciętna długość życia, przyczyniły się do postępującego procesu starzenia się ludności. Przebieg i przestrzenne zróżnicowanie jego tempa były bardzo różnorodne (Długosz 1998;Frątczak 2002;Kurek 2008;Kowalewski 2011;Wiśniewski, Szejgiec-Kolenda i Śleszyński 2016). Początkowo zdecydowanie szybciej starzała się ludność obszarów zurbanizowanych, jednakże od połowy pierwszej dekady XXI w. struktura wieku ludności wiejskiej zaczęła się upodabniać do tej obserwowanej w miastach (Kurek 2008(Kurek , 2011Szymańska i Biegańska 2014;Podogrodzka 2014Podogrodzka , 2016.…”

“…There are also many diverse consequences of this process, and challenges facing Polish society and economy in this sphere [14,15]. Many studies show that, for several decades, the main reasons leading to population ageing include structural population changes, that consequently bring decline in fertility, stagnation in population growth, and new relations in sex, age and population structure [16,17]. Economic and social consequences of the process are broadly analysed [1,18,19].…”
