Quality of life: Approach in the communities of Ilha do Mel, belonging to the municipality of Paranaguá, on the coast of Paraná. The population lives in a constant search for improvements in the quality of life, always aiming to better meet their needs before society. The objective of the study was to estimate the residents of Ilha do Mel quality of life. The tool used was a questionnaire with open and closed questions, where 225 interviews were obtained within the four chosen communities. Among the results achieved, it was possible to observe that their quality of life is within the subjective standards, beingconsidered a satisfactory index with regard to socioeconomic and environmental aspects, differently from the standards estimated in the urban region of the municipality. Thus, the quality of life is subjective, varying from one individual to another, mainly because they present completely different views in several aspects. For this, this study implies the survey of the real situation in which the residents of Ilha do Mel are installed, and what is their level of satisfaction about the life in which they are submitted.
