Summary/Abstract: In their work, the authors undertook an attempt to evaluate the living conditions and their influence on a subjective assessment of quality of life of the population of the European Union member states. For the purposes of evaluation of living conditions, due to complexity of the issue, there was used the classic method TOPSIS. The determined composite measure of the living standard is then compared with the subjective assessment of quality of life examined by the Eurofound and published in the report of EQLS.
