Population Density of Poland


The map I made below features the population densities of Poland's voivodeships, or provinces. Visit my Poland voivodeships post for a map labeled with the names of the voivodeships. The unit of measurement on this map is people per square kilometer. Ślaskie has the highest population density, with 375 people per square kilometer. The next highest population density is 220, belonging to Malopolskie. Three provinces - Dolnoślaskie, Łódzkie (Lodz), and Mazowieckie (the location of Poland's capital, Warsaw) are in the third highest class (139-149) on my map. With the most provinces, the 108-125 class has the following six: Kujawsko-Pomorskie, Opolskie (Opole), Podkarpackie, Pomorskie, Świetokrzyskie, and Wielkopolskie. Click on the map to enlarge it! The voivodeships of Lubelskie in East Poland and Lubuskie and Zachodnio-Pomorskie (West Pomerania) in West Poland are in the second smallest class (73-86). Finally, the provinces of Podlaskie and Warminsko-Mazurskie in Northeast Poland have 59 and 60 people per square mile, according to the Central Statistical Office of Poland data (year 2012) that was used.
