As theoretical background, an analysis of various interpretations of the concept of the quality of life was carried out, including in the context of sustainable development. The impact of economic and environmental factors of the quality of life in rural settlements on peatlands is considered with respect to their location in the zone of attraction of Moscow. It was concluded that the development of industrialization in the region led to population decline and to increase in the anthropogenic load. This critically increased the vulnerability of peatlands to fluctuations in weather and climate conditions and several times led to serious environmental disasters. At the same time, location in the zone of attraction of Moscow opens up opportunities for improving the quality of life associated with the development of post-industrial recreational use.

The Volga River basin, within which the research was carried out, is a rather heterogeneous picture, both in geological, geomophological and hydrological terms, and in technogenic development and use. A four-level taxonomy is presented in the selection of sites for monitoring, based on a combination of natural-landscape-climatic and technogenic factors. The highest taxon (areas of category I) includes the basins of reservoirs with the adjacent slopes and the residential and industrial- agricultural structures located within them. Within these areas, smaller taxa are distinguished - areas of category II - industrial and urban areas.
