Poziom życia w powiatach województwa lubuskiego
The standard of living in the powiats of Lubuskie voivodship

Summary/Abstract: The aim of the paper is to measure the standard of living in the powiats of Lubuskie voivodship and to group them according to this criterion. The analyses were carried out for the data from 2017 obtained from the Statistical Office in Zielona Góra and the Local Data Bank of Statistics Poland. The author used selected indicators describing the standard of living in 10 areas that determine the living conditions of communities in the Lubuskie powiats. The standard of living was measured using Hellwig’s synthetic taxonomic measure. The study demonstrated that what distinguished the groups of powiats (extracted by the measure) to the largest extent, were economic factors. However, cities with powiat status, where infrastructural, environmental and social factors were more important, proved an exception to this rule.
