Everybody immediately understands the term rural area. Building an objective, unequivocal definition of rurally appears to be an impossible task. The number of inhabitants is a criterion often used to define the frontier between rural and urban areas. The article presents the new methods for definition of rural areas at two hierarchical levels - local level (municipalities) and territorial unit (district, region). The methods are based on construction of membership function for rural and urban area and on number of inhabitants.
