Abstract

The main aim of our thesis is to analyse and assess the districts of Nitra self-governing region from the viewpoint of poverty. The analysis is based on indicators gained from Statistical Office of the Slovak Republic and census of inhabitants, houses and flats in 2011. All of these indicators are either of an economical aspect, such as long term unemployment, extent of registered unemployment, extent of economic activity, entrepreneurship and the flat reconstruction intensity or social aspect e.g. a low degree of education and gypsy ethnic group. Moreover, demographic aspects have been involved into our research, such as viviparity, mortality and average age. We have found out that the poorest districts occur in the south of Nitra region, in contrast to the north area which is considered to be the richest part of Nitra region.
