Since the beginning of the existence of the voivodeship, the most loud dispute between Łomża and Białystok has been the Via Baltica, which as an expressway, according to the original plans, was to run from Warsaw to the borders of Lithuania through Łomża-Grajewo-Suwałki. After Łomża lost its status as a voivodeship capital and the strengthening of Białystok's position, the project was changed, the course of the route was moved by several dozen kilometres. The construction of the Via Baltica was complicated by the conflict over the Rospuda Valley, a protected natural area, which was to be cut by the Augustów bypass. One of the biggest problems of the newly established voivodeship was unemployment. In 1999, companies began to generate losses for their owners, which resulted in employee layoffs. The deterioration of the companies' condition was related to the crisis in Russia, the low competitiveness of companies on Polish and foreign markets. The poverty zone was growing. In January 2000, approximately 75 thousand people were unemployed in the Podlaskie Voivodeship. The unemployment rate was over 12%. The highest unemployment rate in the Podlaskie Voivodeship was in <a href="/wiki/Grajewo_County" title="Grajewo County">Grajewo County</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTESawicka201012_6-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTESawicka201012-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In the Podlaskie Voivodeship Development Strategy adopted in 2000, Białystok was included in the central functional area.

The average density of the population, the number of the population per 1 km2, was 59. The urban population in the same period was 60.2 percent of the total number of inhabitants of the voivodeship, where the percentage of females in the total population amounted to 51.3 percent.
