Drohobyczka<\/strong>\u00c2\u00a0(with Huta drohobyczka), a village in the Przemy\u015bl powiat [district], about 33 kilometers to the northwest of Przemy\u015bl, about 6 kilometers to the northwest of the post office and Roman Catholic parish in Dubiecko. In Drohobyczka there are 66 homes and 412 residents; in Huta [drohobycka] there are 87 homes and 657 residents. The greater property includes 30 m\u00f3rgs [about 1.422 m\u00f3rgs per acre] of arable land, 30 m\u00f3rgs of meadows and gardens, 24 m\u00f3rgs of pastures, and 631 m\u00f3rgs of forests; the lesser property includes 1042 m\u00f3rgs of arable land, 117 m\u00f3rgs of meadows and gardens, 184 m\u00f3rgs of pastures, and 344 m\u00f3rgs of forests.<\/p>\n

Drohobyczka<\/strong>, a stream in the area of the Drohobyczka gmina [community], in the Przemy\u015bl powiat. It arises in this village in a few trickles, one flowing in from the Sikor\u00f3wek forest below Raczyny (452 meters), a second one flowing in from Huta drohobyczka. The trickles combine in the village 268 meters above sea level. Thus, the stream of water arises in the south through the outskirts of Dubiecko and falls to the San River from the left bank after flowing for 9 kilometers.
