      abstract = {A gradual process of convergence of our country with the  bloc’s member states has been observed since Poland’s  accession to the European Union. The advance in the  standard of living and living conditions of the inhabitants  attests to this. The study area included rural and  urban-rural communes of Lower Silesia. The research was  aimed at determining the differentiation of the level of  socioeconomic development within the Lower Silesian region  and establishing whether changes in growth serve to  increase or decrease this diversification. The level of  socioeconomic development in 2002 and 2010 was determined  based on available data. In order to determine the  differentiation, a hierarchical method of linear ordering  and statistical methods were applied, including the Pearson  correlation coefficient, as well as the coefficients of  variability and determination. The studies showed that  differentiation in terms of the level of socioeconomic  development in the province’s rural areas deepened in the  years 2002-2010 . It was noted that despite significant  changes in most indicators characterizing socioeconomic  development, growth progressed unevenly and was spatially  diversified. Communes with the highest level of development  were located around urban agglomerations, however, those  communes which saw the fastest development did not form a  compact territory around cities.},
