The safest places in Poland. These cities have the most chance to survive the crises
Politicians, political science or global conflict experts every now and then herald a war in which Poland is soon drawn. If the armed conflict covers the territory of the country, in which some citizens can feel the safest? This question is answered by a special BGK report. We will also learn from it which local governments are best prepared to deal with other types of crises.
Bank Gospodarstwa Krajowego once again analyzed which Polish cities, municipalities or entire regions are most threatened in the context of a possible war (these are hybrid activities, cyber attacks or information chaos).
That’s not all – the report is also presented by local government units, which were analyzed, among others in the context of possible humanitarian crises (such as, among others, an uncontrolled influx of refugees).
Ranking in the face of war. Here are the least endangered places in Poland
The BGK report shows that almost 1.3 million citizens of the Republic of Poland live in municipalities, which are particularly threatened – both with war and health, natural or humanitarian issues. These Poles live 169 local governments included in: Lublin region, Podlasie or Mazovia.
As for the region, the least exposed in the context of misfortunes from these four categories, it is, among others Wielkopolska. In general, 3.9 million compatriots may feel very safe today.
The analysis of experts shows that the most threatened armed conflict of cities are: Warsaw and Gdańsk. In the first case, this is related to the presence of the airport, the seats of important state institutions or facilities of critical importance. In the second – for a refinery, sea and airport.
These cities are the most threatened, but at the same time best prepared for a possible humanitarian crisis
What if we consider humanitarian crises? The aforementioned cities, as well as Wrocław, Kraków or Poznań, have an advantage over other places in terms of readiness for any problems. But unfortunately they are most at risk of their speech.
This is especially true for the capital of Poland, Pomerania or Lesser Poland, as well as neighboring municipalities, including Raszyna and Pruszcz Gdański.
