CHANGES IN COMMERCIAL ACTIVITIES IN MEZ HEGYES (1989-2006)

In Mez hegyes there is not a central commercial district, a shopping centre, the present scattered network of shops makes orientation difficult for strangers, hinders tourism and consumption of the transit traffic. Inhabitants of the nearby farms can often reach easier the surrounding settlements for shopping: thus Mez kovácsháza, Tótkomlós (market). Only a part of the inhabitants of Mez hegyes does the shopping locally. Moreover, the number of those who are able to buy is very low in Mez hegyes, since the majority of the inhabitants has a very modest income.
