<abstract xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">The growth of both the construction market and the property market depends on various macroeconomic and legal factors, as well as on demographic, institutional, stock and local conditions. The aim of this research was to determine the spatial differentiation, dynamics and determinants of housing development activity in Poland in the context of historical and current legal conditions. This activity was measured, first of all, by the number of construction contracts and the number of completed buildings and dwelling units.During the research, an attempt was made to establish determinants of construction activity, by analyzing social, demographic and economic factors concerning individual districts. With this aim in view, the study used statistical panel data models, constructed on the basis of data created as a result of combining time series of observations for cross-sectional units.The results of the research are presented not only in the form of statistical models, but also as a series of cartographic studies, prepared with the application of GIS tools, presenting the current status of housing development activity in Poland.</abstract>
