Poland — Regional Market index
The Poland regional market index lists the 16 Polish entries in the Top 400 Regional Markets — Europe set. Each entry is a named suburb or satellite municipality between 15 and 80 kilometres of a major Polish metropolitan reference point that contains at least one retail co-location cluster, qualified under the co-location regional market framework. This page is a filtered, Poland-specific view of that continental table — not a separate dataset — so every entry and tier count below matches the continental table exactly and updates automatically if that table is corrected. No rank or score is published for any market.
Metropolitan groupings
Poland's 16 markets cluster most heavily around Katowice (4 markets), reflecting the density of the Upper Silesian Industrial Region's suburban belt — the same regional cluster that anchors Bielsko-Biała. Kraków (3) and Gdańsk (2) form a second tier. The remaining markets are single entries reporting to Kielce, Bydgoszcz, Łódź, Gliwice, Warsaw, Wrocław, and Łomża.
Tier composition
Bielsko-Biała (suburb of Katowice) is Poland's only entry with two Tier 1 clusters and a civic anchor. Radom (suburb of Kielce) is a rare T1+T2+T3 combination with a civic anchor. Toruń and Częstochowa each combine a Tier 1 and a Tier 2 cluster. Ten of Poland's remaining entries qualify on a single Tier 1 cluster with no civic anchor, and Gdynia and Nowy Sącz qualify on a Tier 2+Tier 3 combination.
