This definition is accepted by regional and global framework. IUCN defines the protected area as - “A clearly defined geographical space, recognized dedicated & managed through legal or other effective means, to achieve the long-term conservation of natural with associated ecosystem services and cultural values.” In addition to protect the biodiversity of protected area, we can also obtain resource for betterment of human health, and we can distribute the profit between localities. (Naughton-Treves et al. 2005). Now a day’s protected area are facing a problem of settlement. Settlement can be defined as any form of residency, which can range from single residency to city. In another term, settlement is a process of making construction in uninhabited area by people. It can be said that, settlement is a process of getting some terrain to build, which can be used to live or for commercial use. Settlement can be categorized mainly in two parts rural and urban. Basic difference between rural and urban settlement is the need, in rural settlement the basic needs are priority, but in urban settlement luxury along with primary need is main area of focus. The study area taken by us is comes under rural settlement surrounding Corbett National Park. KEY WORD: DEMOGRAPHIC, STANDARD OF LIVING, THEIR DEPENDENCY
