It is based on the method of combining different indicators.

For scores based scale ranges of values ​​in terms of all the regions. The ranges are determined based on the minimum and maximum values ​​of this index. The ranges are divided into ten equal intervals. Each interval corresponds to a certain number of points (of the first to tenth).

The sum of scores for all indicators in the region, derived in accordance with a 10-point scale, and is the index of the standard of living.

Kostanai region includes 16 districts and 4 cities of regional importance: Altynsarin, Amangeldy, Auliekol, Denisov, Dzhangeldy, Zhitikara, Kamysty, Karabalyk, Karasu, Kostanay, Mendykara, Naurzum, Sarykol, Taranov, Uzunkol, Fedorov, city: Kostanai, Arkalyk, Lisakovsk, Rudniy.
