Poznań
I was born here, so obviously I know the most about this city.
Habitants of Poznań are considered to spend the money too fruggle. In my mind, it's an opinion of jealously habitants of Warsaw, who are too profligacy ;)
In fact, a very popular habit in Poznań that a lot of people have a special money box. Every Friday they put in a small amound of money, e.g. a coin 5zł. After some time you have quite a nice amound of money which you can spend as you want :) A lot of my friends and members of my family do it, but it isn't very popular in the rest of the country.

Warsaw
The "Pots" ("Słoiki") spoil the opinion of the city. It is a pejorative name of someone who moved to a capital and then lends a flat. These people don't want to be a part of society, they don't want to feel the atmosphere of a city. They only sleep and work there. Very ofter they are arrogant and look down on others. But in my opinion, most of people from Warsaw are very nice and helpful :)
Anyway, there aren't true habitant in Warsaw who live from generation to generation. During IIww the city was tore down, so people were killed or forced to run away. I really wish I had had a chance to live among these people and see what kind of people they were.
Maybe some time machine? ;)

Sosnowiec
It is a city with definitely bad fame. It is in Silesia, but residents of Sosnowiec don't speak in local dialect. The two cities, Katowice and Sosnowiec, competed themselves for hundreds years. This aversion is still visible, for example on the Internet.
Sosnowiec is simply the object of jokes in the whole Poland.

To sum up, every city is magic and you shouldn't pay attention to the stereotypes, but visit cities and see it on your own :)
