Environmental Economics
The main scientific problem to which the study is devoted is to determine the relationship between such aspects of the quality of life of the population as: environmental quality, economic inequality and digitalization of households. The relationship between the three studied areas of household life is dictated by the processes of digital transformation, the formation of a green economy, while the phenomena of population differentiation by income is increasing. Nonparametric correlation coefficients were calculated using open data from the national statistical agency for the regions of Russia for the period 2019-2022. The results of the study substantiate the presence of a statistically significant positive relationship between the Gini index and the number of Internet users. The hypothesis of a correlation between the digitalization of households and the quality of the environment was not confirmed in the sample. The relationship between environmental quality and income inequality has not been unequivocally confirmed and was observed only in 2019.
