Abstract:
Improving the quality of life of the population is one of the strategically important directions of modernisation of Ukrainian society. The research focuses on identifying and justifying the interconnection and interdependence of the quality of life of the population and the
actors of development of housing and communal infrastructure. The purpose of the given paper is to economic assessment of the relationship between factors of development of housing and communal infrastructure and the quality of life of the population of Ukraine. The object of present research is of the quality of life of the population and the factors of
development of housing and communal infrastructure. The hypothesis of the study is that official statistical data do not provide a comprehensive description of the relationship between housing infrastructure development and improvements and the quality of life. A multivariate statistical analysis of the correlation between the level of development of the
housing and communal infrastructure and the quality of life of the population made it
possible to establish general patterns characterizing the interdependence of interrelated variables and to establish a close relationship between them. The main tools used for a multidimensional statistical analysis and forecasting are the BCG matrix; map of orrelations; least squares method, scatterplot, taxonomic analysis method, Durbin-Watson autocorrelation test, cluster analysis; schematic map of the results of clustering, foresight methods and Holt’s method of linear exponential smoothing. The research has shown a linear relationship between the component of the quality of life of the Ukrainian population
and the development level of housing and communal infrastructure, in particular, the mprovement of housing stock of Ukraine. The threedimensional model of integrated assessment of the state of housing and communal infrastructure allowed the current state of housing and communal infrastructure and determining the conditions for its development. The practical relevance of the study is to develop recommendations to create conditions for balanced development of housing and communal infrastructure of the state.
