IBGE released this Thursday (21) the distribution of the population by more detailed areas within each municipality. Grajaú, in the South Zone of the city, has a population larger than that of 5,440 Brazilian cities. New data from the 2022 Census released by the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE) this Thursday (21) show how the population is divided within cities. In the city of São Paulo, which has 96 districts, it is possible to observe that the population is distributed quite unevenly. See the map above to see how many people live in each of them. Grajaú, in the South Zone, is the district with the largest number of people and households: there are 384,873 inhabitants and 15,4205 households. Only 130 cities across the country have a population larger than that of the district, which means that Grajaú’s population is larger than that of 97.7% of Brazilian municipalities. The average number of residents in occupied households in Grajaú is 2.88. In Marsilac, at the extreme of the South Zone of São Paulo, the opposite happens. The district, which has a large green area, farms, and some indigenous communities, has the smallest population in the city and is also the one with the smallest number of households: there are 11,443 residents and 6,135 households. However, the average number of residents for each occupied household in Marsilac — 2.85 — is higher than Bela Vista and República (1.91), both in the Central region. The district of Grajaú, in the South Zone of São Paulo, is the most populous in the city, according to data from the 2022 Census. Richard Lourenço / Rede Câmara In the division of the city, it is possible to observe that the Center has a lower average number of residents in each household . In other words, in districts such as Bela Vista, República, Consolação and Santa Cecília, more people live alone. (see map below) Division of the city of São Paulo by census sectors. Guilherme Gomes/g1 Districts such as Jabaquara (South Zone), Sapopemba (East Zone) and Brasilândia (North Zone) are among the most populous and still have a high average number of residents for each household. The extremes of the city have fewer residents and fewer homes, but a higher average of people living in each of them. Regionalized information The data released by IBGE this Thursday brings a more precise regrouping of the national territory, based on census sectors, which are the subdivisions used by census takers for research interviews. For the 2022 Census, 452,338 census sectors were considered within the country’s 5,570 municipalities. In relation to the 2010 Census, more than 135 thousand new subdivisions were created, which expands the detail of the material. The data, however, is still preliminary. IBGE brought forward the release to allow for more up-to-date analyses, but the definitive publication with other variables such as sex, race and age of the population should come out in the second half of 2024. The subdivisions by districts and subdistricts, also presented this Thursday, follow the laws and municipal logics. In the city of São Paulo, for example, the division is done by districts, while in Rio de Janeiro and the Federal District, it is done by sub-districts. Overall, Brazil has 10,670 districts and 643 sub-districts throughout the national territory. Other disclosures from the 2022 Census Information from the 2022 Census began to be released in June 2023. Since then, it has been possible to know that: Brazil has 203 million inhabitants, a smaller number than estimated by initial projections; The country continues to become increasingly feminine and older. The median age of a Brazilian went from 29 years old (in 2010) to 35 years old (in 2022). This means that half of the population is under 35 years old, and the other half is older than that. There are around 104.5 million women, 51.5% of all Brazilians; 1.3 million people identify themselves as quilombolas (0.65% of the total) – it was the first time in history that the Census included questions to identify this group in its questionnaires; The number of indigenous people grew 89%, to 1.7 million, in relation to the 2010 Census. This can be explained by the change in mapping and research methodology for indigenous peoples, which allowed more people to be identified; For the first time, Brazilians declared themselves more brown than white, and the black population grew. Also for the first time, the institute mapped all the geographic coordinates and types of buildings that make up the country’s 111 million addresses, and found that Brazil has more religious temples than hospitals and schools combined. After 50 years, the term favela was used again in the Census. In 2022, Brazil had 49 million people living in homes without adequate sewage disposal. This number is equivalent to 24% of the Brazilian population. The lack of an adequate water supply affected 6.2 million Brazilians.
