Abstract The availability and accessibility of essential services and facilities are key in promoting living conditions. In India, regional differences and development inequities are major obstacles to sustainable development. The main objectives of this study are to analyse the level and pattern of the standard of living and explore inequality in the case of accessibility to basic services and amenities in Rural West Bengal. All data was collected from the Primary Census Abstract (PCA) and Housing and Household Basic Amenities Table from Census 2011. A composite index has been developed to measure the standard of living of rural households. This study also used the Location quotient and Pearson correlation method to measure the concentration level of different household facility and their relationship. This study reveals that there is a very high level of disparity of the level of development in terms of rural household living standards. The rural living standard is very high in norther region (Darjeeling and Koch Bihar) and middle part (Haora district) due to economic opportunity. Most of the districts have low coverage of various parameters of housing conditions, availability of basic amenities, and availability of assets. This study will guide policymakers in the future in making better policies
