The word “quality of life” has been used vigorously from everyday language to research studies. Often, it becomes challenging to differentiate between notions related to QoL, well-being, satisfaction, and happiness. UQoL is a notion that has been conversed in recent studies as a response to various urban issues and challenges. The paper aims to define the concept of QoL in urban context through a descriptive analytical approach and reviews various QoL models and approaches of QoL-studies and compares the number of indices measuring QoL at the national and city level to identify various dimensions and indicators. Finally, a conceptual model concluding the UQoL indicators have been deduced in the form of a matrix. These dimensions represent a guide for policymakers, Planners, Architects, and Designers.
