There are substantial disparities in access to public services between central and peripheral areas of Warsaw, with central districts having significantly better accessibility.
Abstract In this study, we evaluated public service accessibility across Warsaw’s Municipal Information System (MSI) areas, analyzing access to health, education, and green spaces using GIS and spatial buffers. The results show considerable disparities between central and peripheral areas. In districts such as Śródmieście and Ochota, MSI areas in the city centre, offer better access, while peripheral regions, such as Białołęka and Wawer, have limited access. These findings have highlighted the need for sustainable planning and targeted investments in growing areas to reduce inequalities and improve residents’ quality of life.

There are substantial disparities in access to public services between central and peripheral areas of Warsaw, with central districts having significantly better accessibility.
