 1. INTRODUCTION
Human beings have equal desire and ambition to make life prosperous.
The final and long term goal of population education is to increase the
standard of living of an individual, family, society, country & the world
as a whole.

The concept of quality of life is wide. There are different

interpretation of quality of life. Someone rightly said that quality of life
is relative term depending upon the socio-cultural and religious people,
religious values & practice may be the priority and some other may
prefer creative development. Similarly, some may like to have modern
innovation bonded with traditional values and cultural as an attainment
of quality of life.

The degree of satisfaction and happiness that one fulfills through

his/her basic and other needs is known as quality of life. So, the quality
of refers to the life style with full happiness and satisfaction that
fulfills socio-cultural, psychological and emotional needs including
survival needs or basic needs. It is the sense of being pleased or
satisfied with those life elements that are most important to a person.

This project work contains the description of various factors like

age, sex, education attained, income of family, their income sources and
their expenditure on different topics like food, health, communication,

 3.METHEDOLOGY

This project work is the study of 20 hoses of our

neighborhood. It is done to determine the quality of life
of the people of those 20 houses that are mentioned in
this project. To make this project, I randomly selected
the 20 houses having different economic & social status
so as to compare each other individually.

I have been able to prepare this project based on

quality of life by visiting 20 different houses of my
locality. Among two primary and secondary sources, I
have used the primary source to prepare source to
prepare this project work. I had visited their houses
on my own and asked questions individually and did
conversation through which I came to know about the
total number of people, education they had obtained,
their monthly income and their income sources, their
expenditure on health, food, education, transportation
and communication etc.

 5.Conclusion

Quality of life is the degree of

satisfaction or happiness that one can fulfill
through his or her basic and other needs. This
report on a quality of life helps to determine the
living standard of my neighbor's. While preparing
this project report of quality of life I came to
know that some people have low quality of life &
some people have high quality of life & quality of
life varies from families to families. It differs
according to country, time, place, & individual.
