Łódź East County, Administrative county in Łódź Voivodeship, Poland.
Łódź East County is an administrative county within Łódź Voivodeship, covering roughly 500 square kilometers of central Poland. The territory includes several municipalities anchored by three towns—Koluszki, Tuszyn, and Rzgów—with the nearby city of Łódź serving as its administrative hub.
The county was established through Polish administrative reforms in 1998, officially beginning operations on January 1, 1999. It formed as part of a broader restructuring of Łódź Voivodeship following the country's political transformation.
The region maintains six distinct municipalities, each contributing to local traditions through regular community events and preservation of regional customs.
The area benefits from good road connections linking it to major Polish cities, making travel by car straightforward. Local public transport connects the smaller communities to regional centers, though having your own vehicle offers more flexibility for exploring individual municipalities.
Though Łódź serves as the administrative hub for this county, the city itself operates as an independent urban county with its own separate status. This unusual arrangement means the nearby city manages its own affairs independently while still being closely linked to the surrounding territory.
