Głuszyna-Podlas, Rural settlement in Kraszewice municipality, Poland
Głuszyna-Podlas is a small village in Kraszewice municipality within the Greater Poland Voivodeship. The settlement sits on flat farmland with just a handful of houses scattered across the rural landscape.
The settlement belonged administratively to Kalisz Voivodeship between 1975 and 1998 before falling under its current administrative structure. This shift reflects broader territorial reorganization that occurred across Poland during that period.
The village maintains traditional agricultural practices and rural customs that characterize the Greater Poland region, with regular community gatherings throughout the year.
Mail reaches the place using postal code 63-522, and calls can be made with area code 62. Vehicle registration plates in the area carry the POT designation indicating the regional association.
In 2012, records showed just one person living in the settlement, making it among Poland's tiniest communities. This extremely small population illustrates how some villages in the region have drastically depopulated over time.
