Abstract
The quality of life (QOL) is currently one of the main fields of study for researchers
around the world. Its complex nature makes it a topic of interest for many different
fields, such as philosophy, ethics, medicine, economics, sociology and physical culture
sciences. Despite the differences in the way various researches define the QOL, the
general agreement is that any measurement of QOL should encompass the following
dimensions: objective QOL and subjective QOL (well-being). Particularly noteworthy,
for any complex research is the mutual relationship between the QOL and tourism and
recreation. The increase of tourism and recreation should entail a simultaneous development
of local communities, as emphasized by Crouch and Ritchie this implies that the
inhabitants of an area that serves a function of tourism and recreation should profit from
the increased number of tourists. This benefits should be reflected in the objective QOL
conditions and the subjective sense of satisfaction of the residents. The city of Leszno
and it’s tourism and recreation-oriented development strategy were used to form a basis
for theoretical study on QOL and to calculate the Tourism-Recreation QOL Index.
