ABOUT THE REPORT:
In 2024, Krakow strengthened its position as a regional center attracting economic migrants from various parts of the world, while also remaining a “home” for a large group of forced migrants from Ukraine. Additionally, it remains a highly popular destination for student migration.
Citizens of European countries (especially from outside the European Union) are the most likely to settle in Krakow, but communities from Asia and other regions of the world are also expanding dynamically. The report presents changes in the structure of the immigrant population in Krakow in 2024 compared to previous years (up to 2019) based on the latest data from various registers (including ZUS, UMK registration data, MUW residence permits, and GUP declarations on employing foreigners).
It also analyzes key demographic and socio-economic characteristics of the foreign population in the city and identifies areas of the highest concentration of immigrants. Additionally, the report provides a detailed overview of their legal situation and participation in the education system and the economy of both the city and the region.
