Calculations confirm a high degree of differentiation of the districts of the Lipetsk Oblast in terms of the level of infrastructure development in rural areas. The article shows the distribution of districts of the Lipetsk Oblast by group depending on the level of satisfaction of the needs of the rural population in infrastructure facilities. Conclusions. To improve the quality of life in rural areas, it is necessary to apply a differentiated approach to the formation and development of infrastructure, taking into account the peculiarities of the spatial location of facilities and the satisfaction of the population with the quality of social services provided.
