In order to create a real image of the urban sprawl in post-communist cities, we must exceed the administrative boundaries of the city and analyse the geo-demographic changes of the rural area located in proximity, which faces consequences of diffuse urban development. In Romania, from a demographic point of view, periurban areas are the most dynamic areas of the country, the main cause being the migration, not the natural growth. Suceava City, located in the North-East Development Region of Romania, is representative for the studied issue, being, in terms of spatial dynamics, in a process of urban sprawl. The population of the communes included in the periurban area of Suceava City, increased by about 10.000 people in the period between 1992 and 2011 censuses. Our study used GIS techniques, having as support multi-temporal cartographic materials, such as topographic plans and ortophotoplans, and a dynamic study area, to demarcate the penetration of urban expansion in periurban space and to highlight the influence of urban sprawl on the rural space located in vicinity.
