      abstract = {The aim of the study was to compare the housing conditions  of the population living in rural and urban areas of  Wielkopolska province communes. The multidimensional  assessment of housing conditions was carried out using the  TOPSIS method. The research drew on 2016 data published by  the Central Statistical Office in the Local Data Bank. The  housing conditions in rural areas of the Wielkopolska  province were found to be significantly worse than in urban  areas. Over 38% of all examined urban areas and only 5% of  rural areas (mainly located in the Poznań Metropolitan  Area) were classified as Class I with the highest level of  housing conditions. Class IV – with the lowest level of  housing conditions – included as many as 25% of rural areas  and only one urban area located in a mixed, urban-rural  commune. In many of the studies, dynamic, beneficial  changes in housing conditions in rural areas are emphasized  despite the continuous worse situation of rural areas  compared to cities. However, due to the observed  suburbanisation processes in rural areas in the vicinity of  large urban agglomerations, it would be necessary to  distinguish living transformations in these rural areas,  from changes in housing conditions in rural areas that  perform typical agricultural functions.},
