A little history of Zabrze
Zabrze is a city that received town rights in 1922, and since then the number of people wishing to live there has risen 5-fold, from 40 thousand to more than 200 thousand in 2010. In the last few years, owing to demographic changes such as emigration to other cities or countries, nearly 20 thousand people have left the city. In addition, several large estates of single-family houses have been built in the city, which has resulted in a significant surplus of supply over demand for single-family houses. Add to this the huge areas designated for single-family housing throughout Zabrze, and house prices are relatively lower than in similar locations in the Silesian Voivodeship.
