Description The aim of the article is to present the results of evaluation concerning of social environment quality (SEQ) according to micro-regions (territorial districts of municipalities with extended competencies of 3rd degree – MEC regions) and mezo-regions (kraje – regions NUTS 3) of the Czech Republic. The original method of evaluation is based on the selected factors representing key areas of SEQ (social, demographic, urban, infrastructure and environmental area). On this basis the MEC regions were divided into three groups: regions with progressive, standard and regressive SEQ. The NUTS 3 values were then obtained by aggregation of micro-regional values weighted by relevant population. It can be stated that territorial distribution of the SEQ values is characterized by relatively low level of differentiation and further a tendency to decreasing of these values towards to the borders of NUTS 3 regions has been also demonstrated. Overall, it can be concluded that poor SEQ reduces residential and investment attractiveness of the regions and hence long-term sustainability of their development
