Abstract:
Erie, PA and Lublin, PL are sister cities. These cities share similar economic development patterns.
Although there are similarities between past and current economic trajectories, the political economic
background and history of these two cities is very different. The authors intend to develop a situational
analysis of these two cities based on statistical evidence concerning past economic performance
indicators. A brief introduction concerning overall economic developments which are a foundation of
understanding past, present and future prosperity will be followed by the presentation of economic
indicators from each of the two cities over the last twenty years.
