Summary/Abstract: While spoken about spatial distribution of total fertility rates (TFR), generally attention is paid to changes in level of (total) fertility rates and/or birth rates. In the paper attention is paid to stability of ranking of Polish regions defined in terms of TFR values, and to changes in fertility distribution among regions with extreme TFR levels. Age groups with the largest fertility differences are sought. Despite high liability group of ”losers” could be found (regions with low TFR - Opolskie and Dolnośląskie Voivodships). In spite of fact that fertility distribution are becoming more and more similar, growing differences are observed when analyzed fertility of teenagers and females aged 35+.
