Abstract: Studying educational inequalities represents a popular topic especially in developing countries. Unfortunately, Romania is divided into two distinct parts when it comes to education at the urban and rural levels. However, the minimal level of school education which does not lead to a drop in the chances of integration into society is always changing. In the past century it changed from primary to lower secondary and then to higher secondary. Romania has low rates of secondary participation as compared to most European countries. Recently the urban-rural divide started to decrease, but it still exists. This study is designed to obtain an updated perspective on the differences between Romanian county towns from the point of view of secondary level graduates and economic development. The results confirm previous studies and affirm the presence of inequalities between the two environments. This study may represent a new signal for public education authorities.
