Abstract

This report explores the issue of urban–rural differences in Europe according to a number of quality of life domains, namely: income and deprivation; housing; employment and education; work–life balance; access to work, school, family, friends and services; and subjective well-being. It also comments on the adequacy of the rural/urban indicators used, as well as drawing, to a lesser extent, on other related sources.
