Abstract: Entrepreneurship depends on many interrelated conditions. Creating favorable conditions for conducting business activity and attracting potential investors is one of the main tasks of local government units, with particular emphasis on communes. The vicinity of large urban centers proves to be helpful in this regard. As a generator of development, the metropolis enters into functional interactions with neighboring units, providing them with spatial, economic and social potential. The paper attempts to assess the conditions for creating new enterprises in the communes that are under the influence of the Krakow Metropolitan Area (KMA). The following conditions were analysed: housing infrastructure resources, labor supply, including specialist staff, and business environment institutions. It has been shown that the perception of entrepreneurship issues depends on the distance from the KMA core. In communes adjacent to Krakow, the positive impact of the proximity of the metropolis on the creation of new business entities was more often noticed. However, the close location of the metropolis core also has negative effects. Communes located in the immediate vicinity emphasize the deterioration of spatial order and the excessive burden on local budgets with the need to carry out investments in the development of infrastructure serving companies and new residents. Zones under the influence of metropolitan areas are characterized by more favorable conditions for the development of enterprises.
