In general, families have few children: in cities 95.9% (69.1% of interviewed families had one child, 26.8% - had two children); in rural areas - 80.4% (families with one child - 38.2%, with two children - 42.2%).The study of the characteristics of the life of urban and rural families was carried out within the framework of two conceptual models of the quality of life - «objective» (housing conditions, income level) and «subjective» (level of psychoemotional stress, satisfaction of basic life needs and overall satisfaction with life, reproductive orientation).30.7% of the respondents from urban families and 15.2% of respondents from rural families had unsatisfactory housing conditions. In cities, 25.9% of the interviewed families had an average per capita income below the subsistence minimum, 49.5% of the interviewed families had income from 1 to 2 the subsistence minimum. The share of rural families with an average per capita income below the subsistence minimum amounted to 41.9%, with an income of 1 to 2 the subsistence minimum - 37.8%.16.2-22.3% of the interviewed urban families and 5.6-7.8% of the interviewed rural families are subject to psycho-emotional stress of high level. According to subjective integral assessments (satisfaction with life in general), the quality of life of the majority of young families in the Irkutsk region (in cities - 69.1% of the interviewed men and 64.2% of the interviewed women, in villages - 88.9% of the interviewed men and 72.0% of the interviewed women) is low.The material difficulties and unfavorable housing conditions, poor health and lack of good family relationships are most often mention by couples among the hindrances to the birth of the second and third child. The quality of life that meets modern social standards is the most significant factor that can positively affect the realization of the reproductive needs of young families.young familiesquality of lifepsycho emotional stressreproductive orientationмолодые семьикачество жизнипсихоэмоциональное напряжениерепродуктивные ориентации1.Мустаева Ф.
