Krakow - Post Report Question and Answers
Is this a good city for LGBT expatriates? Why or why not?
Poland is not very open-minded. Our LGBT friends had a good community but were probably more careful in Krakow than they might have to be elsewhere. Krakow and Warsaw are definitely more open than other parts of Poland. The vibrant university community in Krakow definitely helps. - Nov 2016
Poles are generally pretty conservative, but Krakow is home to a large student population, and this makes the city a little more liberal. There are some bars and areas aimed toward the gay/lesbian population, but even those are not really advertised. - Mar 2014

The Poles are still homophobic, but it's changing slowly. - Sep 2011
Poland is socially conservative, and in Krakow they are even more so. However, there is a gay and lesbian film festival each year. - Aug 2011
