The publication contains a broad set of data characterising the standard of living of population and the state of economy of the Voivodship, grouped in 21 thematic areas. The latest information presented in this edition of the Yearbook concerns year 2022, when the gradual abatement of the COVID-19 pandemic took place. In order to facilitate the analysis of its influence on the social and economic situation, year 2019 has been accepted as a new reference year in almost all thematic fields of this work. It is worth noting that this yearbook also contains two review tables with major data on the Voivodship in the years 2000, 2010, 2015 and 2022, together with certain information regarding the Voivodship in 2022 against the background of the country. Apart from showing the compiled data in statistical tables, the elaboration presents much information in the form of maps and graphs. The statistical content is complemented with general notes containing explanations regarding terminology, methodology, and the scope of information of this publication.
