Polish Uplanders (Polish: Pogórzanie; also known as Western Pogorzans and Eastern Pogorzans), form a distinctive subethnic group of Poles that mostly live in the Central Beskidian Range of the Subcarpathian highlands.[1] The Polish Uplanders inhabit the central and the southern half of the Beskids in Poland, including the Ciężkowickie, Strzyżowskie and Dynowskie Plateau as well as Doły Jasielsko-Sanockie, from the White River (Biała) in the west to the San River in the east.

They represent the major population group inhabiting the Subcarpathian Voivodeship, living alongside German[2][3] and Rusyn people. Historically, this region formed part of Galicia.

Polish Uplanders are neighbours with: the Lachy sądeckie to the west; Krakowiacy and Rzeszowiacy to the north; and Dolinians (vale-dwellers) and Lemkos (both Rusyn subgroups) to the south.

Cultural subdivisions of the Uplanders distinguish the western Uplanders (the area of Gorlice, Jasło and Dukla) from the eastern Uplanders (Strzyżów, Krosno and Brzozów). The border between those two groups lies on the west from Krosno and Strzyżów. The differences between western and eastern groups were especially seen in architecture and in clothing.[citation needed]

Traditional occupations of the Polish Uplanders included agriculture, oil-mining and the military; today these are joined by the service and petroleum industries, and by agrotourism. Polish scholars regard the Pogórzan dialect as part of the Lesser Polish dialect cluster.[citation needed]
