The paper gives both spatial (Kuiavian-Pomeranian and Pomeranian Voivodeships) and time (2002–2008) analyses of the changes in the development of technical and social infrastructure. It also shows the significance of elements of infrastructure for the development of entrepreneurship in rural areas. The studies also included the spatial diversity of entrepreneurship in the individual branches of economic activity. The paper uses the analysis of Pearson’s correlation coefficient as well as taxonomic measurements of development. As the study results show there is a slight dependency (r=0.55) between the development of rural infrastructure and the development of entrepreneurship in rural areas.
