Dębica County

Dębica County is an administrative district in the Subcarpathian Voivodeship in southeastern Poland, covering approximately 776 square kilometers. The territory contains three main towns - Dębica, Pilzno, and Brzostek - as well as several smaller settlements and rural areas.

The area received its current administrative form through Poland's local government reforms and was officially established on January 1, 1999. This restructuring was part of a nationwide reorganization of Poland's local administrative structures.

The area contains seven administrative divisions that each preserve local traditions through a blend of urban and rural communities. These regional differences shape the everyday character and identity of each locality.

The area is well connected by major transportation routes, including the E40 highway and three railway lines linking Wrocław, Rzeszów, and Przemyśl. These connections make it easy for visitors to reach and travel through the region from larger cities.

The area shows a particularly balanced relationship between urban and rural spaces, with most residents spread across smaller communities outside the main cities. This structure makes it an interesting example of Poland's decentralization pattern in recent decades.
