Abstract

In this paper it is attempted, based on the results of empirical studies, to assess the fiscal effects of migration in a peripheral region in Poland. The results presented in the paper show the negative impact of emigration on the budgets of local governments. Migration flows and the lower revenues for local governments may lead to a widening of development disparities between growth centers and remote areas featured with migration outflow.

Keywords:

external migration, fiscal consequences of emigration, disparities in development
