Hear it in context
Notice where the phrase sounds natural.
Many people move to cities in search of better living conditions.
In my opinion, governments should focus on improving living conditions in rural areas to reduce inequality.
Fix the pattern
One small grammar move makes it sound right.
Not: The living condition is bad there.
Say: The living conditions are bad there.
Usually plural — 'living conditions are', not 'condition is'.
Which sounds natural?
Tap the one a native speaker would say.
'Living conditions' is the term; the paraphrase is convoluted.
