Abstract

The relevance of the article is due to the fact that assessing the quality of life of the population economists use relative indicators measuring of consumption structure. The work analyzes the level and structure of population consumption in the studied regions. These indicators have been proven to be the most important factors of the territories’ socio-economic development. It has been shown that over time the consumption structure of Russian regions residents is approaching the predicted theoretical values. Thus, Engel and Schwabe statistical laws are verified. It has been revealed that according to these indicators, the Black Earth cluster population’s living standard is lower than the Russian average; all six analyzed regions are agricultural regions with a high proportion of subsistence farming. Income growth correlates with the likelihood that the region will fall under the influence of statistical laws.
