Abstract

The article deals with the methods and the history of the city-proclamations after 1990. The system-change in Hungary was a turning point in the process of the urbanisation. After 1990 the number of cities and the percentage of the urban population rose rapidly. In 1999 a new law was enforced which specified the conditions of becoming a city. But the regional distribution of the new cities is very inequal. A lot of settlement became city in the environs of Budapest, while there are some counties in Hungary, where the number of cities is constant since 1990. The process of the sub-urbanisation is quite different from West-Europe in Hungary.
