The paper attempts to evaluate the durability and sustainability of both socio-economic development and environmental order in rural communes in Eastern Poland. The authors analysed indicators selected on the basis of literature studies, which demonstrated the level of socio-economic development and environmental order for two years: 2007 and 2013. The developed analysis is based on two methods. Firstly, based on the collected indicators, a synthetic indicator was determined using the Hellwig’s method, which was employed to classify the area under study by distinguishing three classes representing the levels of socio-economic development and environmental order. Secondly, a relationship was determined between the levels of socio-economic development and environmental order. An interrelation between socio-economic phenomena and environmental order is present in each of the communes under study. However, the method and effects of the implementation of sustainable development vary. The study showed that units characterised by average development in terms of socio-economic aspects and environmental order predominate in rural communes in Eastern Poland. Most communes under study showed the balance between the class of socio-economic development and the class of environmental order. This indicates the durability and sustainability of development, which is a welcome trend from the perspective of the concept of sustainable development.
