摘要：The aim of this study is to discuss changes in the
population and indicate the main reasons of these changes in
rural areas of West Pomeranian voivodeship. The study was
conducted on the local level and based on Central Statistical
Office data from the years 2010 to 2014. In the first part of
the research, main demographic information is discussed. It
includes population density, natural increase per 1000 population
and net migration per 1000 population in rural areas
of West Pomeranian voivodeship. In the next part of the research,
the average population growth rate was counted in the
years 2011–2014. Based on these changes, researched units
were divided into four groups – two groups with positive
changes and two groups with negative changes. Subsequently,
the main reasons of the changes in population size were analyzed
in particular groups including natural increase, migration,
population structure by age, level of unemployment and
entrepreneurship. All indicators were designated as averages
from 2011 to 2014. According to the results in most of the research
units, the net migration determined the population size.
The net migration was characterized by higher absolute values
than natural increase. The population size changes are related
to density. The lowest density areas are more depopulated.
Moreover, the population size changes are positive related to
the level of entrepreneurship and negative related to the level
of unemployment.
