the North Region with 304 localities (3.60%) and Central West Maranhão has 24% of the quilombola localities in the country Maranhão is the state with the biggest number of quilombola localities which is equivalent to 23.99% of the total localities in Brazil "We see an important inversion by analyzing data by Federation Units Bahia had the biggest population and Maranhão the second biggest population This inversion is probably related to population distribution patterns in these states Maranhão is a state with a given spatial organization which ends up increasing the number of quilombola localities,” says the manager 655 quilombola communities (8.54%) have one more locality in the same municipality The municipality with most localities was Alcântara (MA) it is possible to know the location of each locality precisely which allows one to evaluate how these communities are concentrated or disperse over the municipalities with the spatial contextualization of this population By analyzing the list of twenty municipalities with most occurrences of quilombolas localities the IBGE researcher also called attention to the existence of one capital: Macapá (AP) has 56 quilombolas localities The publication “2002 Population Census: characteristics of housing units and literacy by specific territories – population results” presents information such as sanitation conditions of housing units with at least one quilombola residents in and out of official Quilombola for Brazil official Quilombola Territories and Quilombola territories by Federation Units The data are also available at the Interactive Geographic Platform (PGI), the 2022 Census Overview and Sidra © 2018 IBGE - Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística Nós utilizamos cookies para melhorar sua experiência de navegação no portal.
