The society well-being needs to be given serious attention by various parties due to the current globalization pressures that society must face. They are chasing something without emphasizing aspects of well-being so that some of them are under pressure. Therefore, this study was conducted to see the impact of economic growth and inflation on Malaysia's socioeconomic well-being. This study uses time-series data from 1994 to 2018. Using the Autoregression Distributed Lag (ARDL), the study results found that population and growth have a positive relationship with long-term economic well-being. In contrast, inflation has a negative relationship with the social well-being of the Malaysian population. To ensure the population's socioeconomic well-being is protected, society needs to play an important role such as planning housing, vehicle and entertainment expenses.
