Summary/Abstract: Because of the process of residential suburbanization municipalities located in suburban areas have to face not only changes within their territories, but also changes in their financial management. First of all, they need to cope with struggles in the expenditures of their municipal budgets. The goal of the research is to identify the most important changes in the expenditures of municipal budgets of the municipalities located in suburban areas of statutory towns in the Ústí nad Labem region in the Czech Republic. These municipalities were defined based on their catchment area, meaning the commute distance to their core statutory town. On the basis of personal interviews with the mayors of individual municipalities it was found out that the biggest increase in expenditures due to the residential suburbanization came about in the sectors of water management, preschool education, roads, environment protection, sport and leisure activities.
