The county spans 1,472 square kilometers and contains eleven municipalities, including two urban areas, Świecie and Nowe, plus nine rural communities.
The county emerged through Poland's administrative reforms in 1999, establishing new territorial divisions to enhance regional governance and local administration systems.
Traditional agricultural practices continue across rural communities, with farmers maintaining methods passed through generations in the Kuyavian-Pomeranian region.
The county seat of Świecie maintains administrative offices, healthcare facilities, and educational institutions serving approximately 99,000 residents across the region.
