The traditional concept of development to economic growth as economic development, per capita GDP will increase as improved quality of life. Improve the population quality of life is the only means of pursuing material wealth. With the development of society, the increase in material wealth as the only means to improve the quality of life were more than replaced by the quality of life dimensions, quality of life of the population has gradually shifted focus to issues such as poverty, income distribution, sanitation and health, education , resources and environment and other issues come up. With other countries around the world, particularly the rapid urbanization in developing countries improve the quality of life of the urban population, urban economics has become an important area of research. In the past decade, theoretical research in this field has made great progress. These developments include the scale effect of urban growth, mass effect and other cities has always been concerned about the content of economic theory into the analysis of urban quality of life framework; also study how the local government is the provision of public services through taxation and the right to influence the quality of urban life. These findings for our understanding of the quality of life differences between cities population provide the basis.Quality of life of the population can be traced back as early as 1958, U.S. economist Galbrainth research. Galbrainth in his book "The Afflent Socity" put forward the concept of population quality of life.The late 60s of the 20th century simply focus on the problems arising from economic growth - lack of resources, environmental pollution, impersonal, and so more and more evident. Scholars gradually became aware of the population; improved quality of life should not just mean improving the quality of material life. It should also be included to improve people's spiritual life and the harmonious development of society.With China's rapid economic development, rapid growth in China's macroeconomic context, it is not only concerned about the rapid growth of its economic wealth, but also gave birth to a people-centered, attention to human development, attention to quality of life, that person's life and development needs and their satisfaction as the ultimate goal of social development, the development concept. On the quality of life of the urban population for the adjustment of China's growth model, promote people-centered development has important theoretical and practical significance.Another reform that began 30 years ago, brought to China a significant economic and social phenomena that urban development at an alarming rate, increasing the number of cities, urban population increased rapidly. Gathered through the cumulative effects of urban form to improve productivity and living standards improve, the quality and quantity from two at the same time show a rapid growth trend. Quality of life of urban population, the gap between the constant expansion of population between cities to analyze the quality of life of the gap, the academic and policy-making sectors of concern.Only have the three northeastern provinces of Liaoning Province, the coastal edge, the strategy of revitalizing Northeast China and the country, "Liaoning Coastal Economic Belt Development Plan," the double support, economic and social development is "fast lane" on the run. Liaoning provincial government, the future of regional development to a new level. Coastal economic zone to the form of line, Shenyang Economic Zone in the city, building new links with the progress, so that links into economic zones and cities with a belt, make new breakthroughs in Liaoning Province, with the narrow northwestern Liaoning province other regional economic disparities. Liaoning Province on the quality of life of the urban population, urban population in Liaoning Province can be the difference between the quality of life to make an objective assessment of the problem. I believe that due to different levels of development of different regions, cities can not compare different regions. However, the same comparison between the cities of the region is feasible and comparable. Quality of life from the urban population in Liaoning Province in the index system of specific indicators can also be seen in the people's needs were satisfied. Liaoning Province, the urban population through the analysis of quality of life, and social development stage of the strategic objectives of contrast, to measure social development in Liaoning Province is to achieve the desired goal. On this basis, through such an evaluation and monitoring functions to help the decision-makers to adjust policies accordingly to the expected time to achieve the desired goal. In this paper, quantitative methods of analysis were 14 cities in Liaoning Province of the population quality of life, and on this basis, analysis of the cause of this population of 14 cities influence the difference in the quality of life. These results for the understanding of economic growth in Liaoning Province, and urbanization, and further adjusted growth model in Liaoning Province has important theoretical and practical significance.This paper analyzes and compares the various existing comprehensive evaluation method, Kaolv to Multi statistical analysis of population life quality assessment of practice has the selection of indicators and methods of coordination and objectivity that a number of characteristics, using factor analysis method from the static and dynamic angles of 14 cities in Liaoning Province city in 2003 - 2008 the urban population was evaluated by the quality of life. The results from the static evaluation can be seen in 2008 in Liaoning Province in 14 prefecture-level cities quality of life of the urban population of the city the highest scores in Anshan City, while the lowest scoring city of Jinzhou City. 2003 - 2008 in Liaoning Province in 14 prefecture-level cities of the urban population dynamic quality of life evaluation results can be seen in Liaoning province-level municipalities in 14 urban quality of life composite score showed a different wave characteristics. Only in 14 cities of Dalian and Fuxin cities urban quality of life composite score in 2003 - 2008 average is positive. While the other 12 urban cities quality of life composite score appear at different times were negative. In accordance with the 2003 - 2008, urban population, quality of life of the average composite score of view, the highest and lowest scores were in Dalian city and Jinzhou. According to non-parametric statistical tests - Mann-Whitney U test results showed that the western and the central city of Liaoning Province, the quality of life of urban population there are significant differences; Liaoning Province, the western and eastern cities, the quality of urban life, there are significant differences; Similarly, the central and the eastern city of Liaoning Province, the quality of life of urban population there are significant differences. According to results of this analysis, the population of Liaoning Province to improve the quality of life countermeasures.
