The Main Provisions of the Article. Nowadays, the need and relevance of information on the living strandards and quality of life of the population not only by region, but also by municipalities, are essenting, and the situation and indicators are the most important strategic task of the region, including smoothing the differentiation between municipalities. In assessing the quality of life of the population monitoring the state of health and safety of the population is of great importance. The are indicators reflecting the situation in these areas. A monitoring system is needed that can monitor and identify problem points of greatest tension in a particular municipal entity, set priorities for the future, conduct comparative analyzes in the dynamics of indicators, and evaluate the effectiveness of government bodies. Municipal statistics makes it possible to evaluate some indicators of the standards of living within the regions, but they reflect only certain aspects of social development; nevertheless, the most relevant indicators can be used to calculate the integral index for assessing the situation in municipalities of the region. Receiving practical approval of the method has proved its effectiveness by the example of municipalities of the Sakha Republic (Yakutiya) according to statistics of the Territorial body of the Federal State Statistics Service of the Sakha Republic (Yakutiya) including indicators of the health and safety of the population by level between municipalities and over three years. In the developed methodology, statistical indicators are converted into points depending on the maximum and minimum values. Indicators have been worked out taking into account the relevance for the northern territories, which may reflect the situation in a particular municipality, and the current socioeconomic situation. Based on the results of the assessment of the state of health and safety of the population, a rating of municipalities of the Sakha Republic (Yakutia) has been built,and differentiation was revealed by municipalities of the Sakha Republic (Yakutia).
