Specific economic activity areas: Chemical industry Electricity Food industry Engineering industry Metal processing and metallurgy Textile industry Plastic Tourism Northern Hungary: -structural crisis of heavy industry - underdeveloped infrastructure - the activity ratio remains below 50%, while the most recent figures suggest unemployment has fallen slightly, to 8.8% Northern Hungary - consists of the counties of Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén, Heves and Nógrád - settlement network: smaller populations than the national average, with predominantly small villages in some areas - the third most populous provincial city, Miskolc, is located in this region - rich in natural resources and minerals → the basis for the traditional heavy industry (but using them not economical) - now variable industrial structures, but all branches of manufacturing are located - chemical (2 biggest chemical company) - electricity - food industries -metallurgy and metal processing -mechanical engineering industries - underdeveloped transport infrastructure Northern Hungary • North Hungary’s share of the country’s gross domestic product is approx. 8-9%. • 7-8% of foreign capital invested in Hungary migrated to this region. (but it is increasing) • Characterised by the dominance of SMEs. • Rich in natural attractions: highest mountains of Hungary, wine districts, natural parks... • Educational/research institutions: – University of Miskolc (with aprox. 20.000 students) – College-level Department of St. István University, Gyöngyös - Teachers’ Training College, Eger – College for Finance and Public Accountancy, Salgótarján • The centres of higher education plays indicator role in the research and technological development of the region. (Regional Innovation Council) Towns and culture The towns dotted about on the gentle slopes and nestling at the feet of the mountains along the northeast border of Hungary bear eloquent witness to the long centuries of Hungarian history. Unique Values - World Heritage While you roam in the mountains of Northern Hungary and ramble in the streets of its villages and towns, you can find many unique treasures. We are proud of them, we love them and carefully protect them. Moreover, this wonderful region has natural, ethnographical and cultural assets, which have caught the word's attention, so their protection is the task of all of us. 9 World Heritage in Hungary → 3 in North Hungary: Hollókő, Baradla Cave in Aggtelek, Tokaj-Hegyalja Castles Visiting manors and stately homes, a European tradition ever more popular in Hungary forms a special segment of tourism. This is much more than a tradition guide - bock: it offers a supposedly full collection of mansion hotels and stately homes to recall their particular atmosphere to introduce their uniqueness and their services. We try to revive past memories to allow an insight, into history, to give special experience. Wine-shoots of the north Hungarian wine regains its old luster! Along with the appearance of private domestic and foreign wine-cellars, new players have entered the scene of the Hungarian wine industry, most of them striving to achieve peak quality. Their efforts were crowned with success as early as the middle of the nineties. A number of Hungarian wines received recognition in international wine competitions – and the rising quality is reflected by the growing demand. Health tourism North Hungary is one of the most complex region in Hungary. The North Hungarian Region is very reach in thermal wather and different baths. People can be find cave, spa, salvus and thermal-spring bath alike (some could be use in winter on open air!). Take to the saddle Northern Hungary is famous for horseback riding. It is no coincidence that the International Horseback Rally of 2000 was held here, in Szilvásvárad, in the home of the Lipizzaner Herd.

Although the further spread of photovoltaic systems, which make use of this source of energy, is expected in the future all around the world, no comprehensive investigation has been conducted into the current situation of the small-scale photovoltaic power plants in Hungary, where this type of photovoltaic system is the most popular. By means of a case study, whose novelty lies in its focus on small-scale power plants and their complex examination, including economic and geographic indicators, this paper analyzes their status in Hungary. The study endeavors to establish the reasons for the popularity of this type of power plant and to identify some typical geographical locations with well-illustrated photovoltaic density.

This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract This Report focuses on the regional competitiveness analysis of Hungary. Eight aspects are taken into consideration, which are Economics, Education and Learning, Innovation, Labor Market Effi- ciency, Infrastructure, Health, Farm, Environment Protection and Crimes. The final results show that Közép-Magyarország (Central Hungary) is the most competitive region which gets 68.46, while Észak Magyaroszág (Northern Hungary) which scored 24.23 is the least competitive region. Cultural and heritage, natural features, higher stage of urban/economic development, R & D sector and high level business services are the main advantages of Közép-Magyarország (Central Hun- gary). However, for the least competitiveness region Észak Magyaroszág (Northern Hungary), more attention should be paid to infrastructure construction, labor mobility, institution efficiency, promotion of innovation, business environment, improvement of education and health and envi- ronment protection. Keywords Regional Competitiveness, Hungary 1. Introduction In economic life and beyond, competition is one of the most fundamental sources of mobilization and creativity and it has immense impact on regional development and growth.

Early burial of the volcanic centers beneath latest Miocene to Pliocene sediments preserved much of their original relief, permitting their classification into genetic types. More than two-thirds of Hungary is covered by thick Neogene and Quaternary sediments, below which buried volcanic eruptive centers and the extent of their products may only be recognized by complex geologic-geophysical methods. Our study is based on the data of several thousand wells, more than 60,000 km of seismic sections, as well as airborne and surface geophysical (gravimetric, magnetic, electromagnetic, radiometric) data. Results of chemical, mineralogical studies and K/Ar dating of deep cores were also included. The data were evaluated in terms of the regional deep structure of the Carpathian-Balkan region, the Miocene evolution of which was determined by the position, movement and welding of individual microplates. Integration of all available data reveals that the Miocene volcanic centers are concentrated near microplate boundaries.

  • Tourism Development in Hungary on the Example of the Northern Hungary Region
    FOLIA GEOGRAPHICA • ISSN 1336-6157 (hard copy) • ISSN 2454-1001 (online) TOURISM DEVELOPMENT IN HUNGARY ON THE EXAMPLE OF THE NORTHERN HUNGARY REGION Zoltán BUJDOSÓ A*, Ádám GYURKÓ B, Béla BENKŐ C Received: May 6, 2019 | Revised: July 13, 2019 | Accepted: August 7, 2019 Paper No. 19-61/2-533 Abstract The current study’s topic is the summary of the results of a touristic core area impoundment whose target area is the region of Northern Hungary. The methodological basis of the research was given by the work of Antal Aubert and Géza Szabó who made a similar touristic impoundment along five parameter examinations. The matter of research is relevant as an investigation based on similar quantitative methods has not been made yet on the target area; moreover it consists of important results for the profession as the national tourism has evolved to a determining industry at a national economy level too. Based on what we read, it is essential to assert that which municipalities, areas are the region’s real touristic scenes. As the results of the research are numerical data, it enabled to set up a ranking between the emerging core areas and the touristic municipalities. On this basis, it can be determined that which areas are the most preferable tourist places. Further advantage of the quantification is that the study can conclude to the touristic fullness as well, knowing the potential of the given destinations, municipalities. This knowledge is of major importance in the basis of setting of objectives in touristic strategies. The current research, regarding the future, is an ideal starting point to know the region’s real tourism, and to compare with the already existing touristic zones, like for instance the priority holiday zones impoundment.

  • Housing Needs in Hungary
    Housing Needs in Hungary Commissioned by Habitat for Humanity Authors: József Hegedüs Orsolya Eszenyi Nóra Teller Contributor: Enikő Kiss-Molnár Metropolitan Research Institute May 2009 Executive Summary 1. The nature of social housing problems in Hungary has changed in the last twenty years and converged towards the European definition. Housing policies aim at providing adequate housing in terms of managing hardship of paying the housing cost for low-income households (affordability) and abandoning low quality (substandard) housing. Before the political transition, Hungarian housing policy discussed housing questions in terms of the „quantitative and qualitative housing shortage” paradigm. Quantitative housing shortage meant the difference between the number of households and the number of housing units, whereas qualitative housing shortage referred to the inadequacy of housing units in terms of size and of quality. Quantitative housing shortage (when the number of households exceeds the number of housing units) dominated in the socialist era, and housing policy strove to maximize the number of newly built housing units. From the second half of the 1980s demographic pressures eased, the rate of urban population growth declined and the aging of the society became a strong demographic factor which influenced housing demand. However, the social and economic changes after transition had contributed to changes of the housing situation: till 2000 households‟ income had decreased, state housing subsidies had been drastically cut, housing cost had increased dramatically, and housing investment plummeted. Providing social housing has become the task of the local governments, but without provision of adequate resources by the central government, thus local governments were interested in getting rid of their social housing stock.
