The present research aims to identify and to know the relationship between the variables that
affect the Quality of Urban Life (QUL) from the citizen perception, that is to say, evaluating the
QUL from a subjective dimension through statistical models that allow distinguishing the factors
of greater influence. For this, a survey was designed and applied to the inhabitants of the city of
Barranquilla from different strata and localities with questions related to the aspects that affect
the UQL.
From the survey, a database was created, which, using tools such as STATGRAPHICS
Centurion XV.II and R PROJECT, was the input parameter for the creation of statistical models
such as Multiple Linear Regression Models (MLRM) and Models Of Poisson regression (MPR),
with which, in addition, elasticities of each of the variables that were part of the chosen models
were calculated, measuring the sensitivity of the UQL versus the variations of the same ones.
The results of this research indicate that the most influential factors in the UQL for the city of
Barranquilla and according to the perception of its inhabitants are education (both its level and
quality), citizen security, economic growth, and comfort , referring to the quality of urban spaces
within the city that lead to well-being.
