Part 1: Standard of Living
1. Definition of Standard of Living and Comparison with Related Concepts
The standard of living refers to the level of wealth, comfort, material goods, and
necessities available to a certain socioeconomic class or a geographic area. It is typically
measured by the availability and access to basic resources and services such as income,
employment, housing, healthcare, education, and access to infrastructure like

comfort.
