Abstract

The results in the reduction of the territorial differences as the goals of regional development can be measured well by the living standard, quality of life of inhabitants and the changes in the above and the several economic indexes. The most important thing, of course, is that the opinions of those living there change in positive direction, and the image of their living place and its region is encouraging. By this way the local retaining capacity of single area units can be increased, which also concerns the questions of rural development regarding the rural regions. Following these ideas we made a questionnaire survey based on a 1000-strong sample in North-East Hungary. In the questionnaire the respondents could qualify their living places and the sub regions, counties by different factors of quality of life and they gave information about their financial possibilities and living standards. It helped to compare the sub regions of the above part of the country, and – through this - to present the differences invented by the living locally. Our short paper presents only that part of the main results, which is directly connected with judgement of liveability and quality of life of close and wide living place.
