Mielec County, Administrative district in Subcarpathian Voivodeship, Poland.
Mielec County is an administrative district in southeastern Poland comprising ten municipalities and three principal towns: Mielec, Radomyśl Wielki, and Przecław. The area combines urban centers with extensive rural lands where agriculture and manufacturing form the economic foundation.
The county was formed in 1999 during Poland's major administrative restructuring that reorganized the entire country into new regional divisions. Mielec became the administrative center of this newly created district and continued its role as a key local hub.
The region shows its industrial past through aerospace manufacturing facilities that still operate as major employers today. Rural villages maintain traditional farming practices that shape daily life and local community rhythms.
The main towns are linked by local roads and serve as orientation points for visitors exploring the region. To experience the mix of urban and rural areas, allow time for both since they offer distinctly different perspectives of daily life.
The region is home to the Europark Special Economic Zone, a modern industrial and business park that draws international companies. This location shows an interesting contrast between the area's farming heritage and its evolution into a contemporary economic center.
