The purpose of the article is to assess the state of the environment in the rural areas of the counties of the Mazovian Voivodeship, since the result of this assessment is very helpful in determining the directions of development and land use of individual counties and municipalities, as well as for individual investors, especially those interested in tourism, recreation and housing. In order to make such an assessment, 7 indicators were used: the overall burden of the environment by permanent residents, the preservation of the vegetation cover in a form close to natural, the diversity of land use forms, the area and nature of protected areas, the burden of municipal waste, the burden of domestic sewage, the state of atmospheric air.
