Abstract Multi regression models of quality of life are developed using data from the Social Statistics Survey 2004-06 of National statistical Office in Korea. Life satisfaction, housing and neighbourhood satisfaction, family life satisfaction, and leisure satisfaction were explained by various measurable socioeconomic and cultural factors, which is the first attempt in QOL research areas in Korea. Relationships among life satisfaction, leisure satisfaction, and neighbourhood satisfaction are strong. Statistical treatment of the data indicates a positive and significant relationship between life satisfaction and neighbourhood satisfaction. Neighbourhood satisfaction is found to be the best predictor of life satisfaction.
