English abstract:
Quality of Life (QoL) by the Glossary of United nations is the Notion of human welfare measured by social indicators rather than by "quantitative" measures of income and procution.
The past decade has seen an acceleration of scholarly interest in QoL including a stream of studies in well-being and happiness. As most of the world's population now lives in urban areas, and with disparate populations in advanced nations being highly concentrated in large cities, it is inevitable that many QoL studies have focused on measuring and modeling aspects of life in urban areas or the quality of urban life.
