Abstract	Alcoholism is known to significantly affect an individual’s social and economic stance. Alcohol abuse leads to financial problems, loss of productivity, strained family and social relationships, and reduced overall quality of life, including economic well-being. This research seeks to study the relationship between alcoholism and the living conditions of people in the Sarguja District of Chhattisgarh. Primary data collected from 80 respondents provided information regarding varying degrees of alcohol dependence and their economic and social profiles. For the participants of this research, it was evident that alcoholism significantly lowers overall status in terms of income, employment, and education. These findings highlight the need to address alcohol dependence not only as a public concern but also as a critical issue impacting social mobility and economic welfare. Further research is needed to better understand this relationship within the regional context.
