In 2009, gross domestic product (GDP) per inhabitant was 17 100 purchasing power standards (PPS) at current market prices in the predominantly rural regions of the EU (NUTS3), that is 73% of the European GDP average. Between 2008 and 2009, GDP per inhabitant was down by 6.6% in rural regions and by 6.0% in the EU as a whole. The purpose of this paper is to present economic data and the impact of the crisis especially in the context of rural development, making use of the urban-rural typology. |
