The article substantiates the need to study the conditions for the formation of the middle class. Various approaches to the assessment of the middle class are considered and the author's approach based on factor modeling of balanced personality development is justified. The model clearly allows us to understand the reasons for the extremely low share of the middle Russian class, the lack of coordination of institutional changes with the harmonious development of the individual. This is due to the unevenness of ownership of production elements, the factors of the impossibility of changing the social status for people with higher education and demanded qualifications. Based on the simulated factors of life satisfaction and comfort of living of the population, a sociological survey was carried out, the results of which were processed using economic and mathematical methods and presented in graphic form. The author substantiates the use of the factor model of population quality of life management for the formation of methods and technologies for managing a set of measures that allow influencing the increase in the share of the middle class.
