Statistical data released regarding pensions and life expectancy in Poland
New statistical data from the Social Insurance Institution (ZUS) reveals pension distributions in the Lubuskie Voivodeship. Monthly payments in the region range from 12 groszy to 25,700 PLN, with the largest group of recipients receiving between 3,000 and 4,000 PLN. In Gorzów Wielkopolski, approximately 24,400 people receive between 3,000 and 4,000 PLN, while 1,700 receive amounts exceeding 10,000 PLN. In Zielona Góra, 24,500 recipients fall within the 3,000 to 4,000 PLN bracket.
Separately, data from the Central Statistical Office (GUS) for 2025 indicates a significant life expectancy gap in the Lubelskie Voivodeship. Men live an average of 75.14 years, while women live 83.13 years, a difference of nearly eight years. This disparity is among the highest in Poland. A report by Professor Piotr Radziszewski highlights that delays in diagnostics, mental health issues, and a reluctance among men to visit specialists contribute to these differences. Prostate cancer remains a leading health challenge, with approximately 24,000 cases diagnosed in 2023.
