Przemiany migracyjne i demograficzne nowego miasta na przełomie XX i XXI wieku – przykład Bornego Sulinowa
Migration and Demographic Changes of a New Town at the Turn of 20th and 21st Centuries Exemplified with Borne Sulinowo

Summary/Abstract: Borne Sulinowo is one of the settlements that were made over by the Russian army to the Polish side at the beginning of the 1990s. It is the only one that achieved the status of town and has become the most populous settlement left by the Russian army in Poland. For 20 years it has undergone many changes resulting from its reconversion and from an increase of its population. It is one of the very few towns in the West Pomeranian Voivodeship whose population has been growing since its beginning. There are several reasons for that, among them a very important one has been a plentiful supply of cheap flats. A problem that might appear in Borne Sulinowo is a steady process of aging of its population, which – in turn – is caused – inter alia – by an inflow of elderly people. As a result, the demographic structure of the town keeps changing, and its function might change too. During the holiday season Borne Sulinowo is visited by many tourists; in future it might affect the economic growth of the town and the structure of its population.
