Abstract: The present work is about the influence of migration on the quality and the subsistence level of the inhabitants from the six communities of Zakliczyn, Iwanowice, Czchów, Wieliczka, Zielonki, Drwinia located in the Malopolska voivodship. The quality of life of the examined households is not satisfying and the subsistence level of families, defined on basic cost patterns, is low. The principal costs are the so-called indispensable expenses. Such expenses include those which every household must bear; such as food and housing. There is pressure on the development of the social and technology infrastructure to lower unemployment so as to encourage inhabitants, especially the young of the community, to limit their outflow abroad.
