Abstract
This study aims to demonstrate the following two points. Firstly, making GIS database of demographic and socio-economic indicators at provincial level for the Višegrad four countries. Secondly, investigating influences of socio-economic development in regional context upon changing demographic indicators. The yielded results are; firstly, diffusion of fertility decline implies regional structures of the study area, i.e. well developed and well-informed regions experienced fertlity decline followed by less developped regions. Secondly, migration between capital cities and the rest shows stagnation while regional disparity between them grows. One of the factors seems to be a tight housing market of capital cities.
