Powiązania funkcjonalno-przestrzenne w Krakowskim Obszarze Metropolitalnym w świetle dojazdów do pracy
Functional-spatial connections in the Cracow Metropolitan Area in case of commutings to work

Summary/Abstract: The processes of suburbanization and metropolization of major Polish cities which have intensified since mid-1990s are characterized by specific socio-demographic changes, among which one of the most visible is the reversal of the direction of migration. Until the early 1990s migration from the countryside to the city center prevailed, however at present the outflow to external zone of the metropolitan area dominates. Not only the people of Kraków migrate but also increasingly the shift of industrial and service sectors to suburban zone is observed, which leads to the development and differentiation of functional and spatial relationships within the KMA. The aim of the study is to examine changes in the scale and direction of these relationships within the Kraków Metropolitan Area using data on commuting collected by the Central Statistical Office for the years 2006 and 2011
