History / Pre WWII life in small town Poland [19]

Thanks for all the info. the region I am interested in is up near Bialystok - ex Russian partition. Wrt radios, my father used to talk of the Doctor in the street who had a radio and everyone would gather round the open window to listen to the news.

Thanks again.

History / Pre WWII life in small town Poland [19]

Can you help with this, please?
I need information on how people lived in pre WWII small town Poland. EG
Was there widespread electricity?
Did people use gas or solid fuel to cook with?
What was the public transport system like.
What % of urban roads were paved.
Were there cinemas in all/many towns?
How many households had radios?
What was the school system like?

Just about anything and everything.

Many thanks
W.
