Acrelandia, located in the northern state of Acre, was the most polluted city in Brazil in 2022, based on fine air particulate matter concentration (PM2.5). Throughout the year, the city had an average particulate matter concentration of 23.3 micrograms per cubic meter. The World Health Organization's air quality standards recommend a maximum annual average concentration of 10 μg/m³. Four of the top five most polluted cities in Brazil that year were located in the state of Acre.

ABSTRACT In recent decades, scientific and academic researchers around the world have been concerned with the assessment of regional and global climate trends. The assessment of changes in the climate system is a planning tool for society as it enables the consideration of possible consequences from the increasing air temperature and changes in precipitation that have been observed around the world. Under the hypothesis of climate change presence in Brazil, the aim of this study was to verify the presence of climate trends in 243 annual data from Brazilian cities of maximum, minimum and average air temperatures and rainfall. The Mann-Kendall (M-K.) and the Pettitt (Pett.) tests were applied in order to evaluate the presence of significant trends. Maps were developed for the spatial visualization of the observed trends. The statistical results show that, from all the studied cities, increasing trends in maximum temperature were observed in 35% of the series, decreasing in 1% and no trends were observed in 64%. For the minimum temperature, increasing trends were observed in 30% of the studied series, decreasing in 8% and no trends in 63%. For the average temperature, increasing trends were observed in 35%, decreasing in 3% and no trends in 62%. For rainfall, increasing trends were observed in 6%, decreasing in 4% and no trends in 91%. The observed trends may be related to the anthropic activities like urban expansion, industrial development and the increasing population density in each studied city.

Among the cities in Brazil, São Paulo, the country's most populous city, had the highest wine consumption rate, with an average of 7.1 times per month. In contrast, Belo Horizonte had the lowest wine consumption, with an average of 4.7 times per month.

Florianópolis, SC, and Rio de Janeiro, RJ, had the most expensive housing in Brazil in July 2024. The average house price in Florianópolis, the capital of Southern Brazil's Santa Catarina state, cost close to 1.4 million Brazilian reals, whereas in Rio de Janeiro, it was about 1.2 million Brazilian reals. From the 12 cities under observation, João Pessoa had the most affordable housing, with the average house price at 600,000 Brazilian reals. House prices in Brazil have grown year-on-year since 2018.

The basic food basket in Brazil takes into account the prices of 13 food products that are necessary to guarantee, for one month, the sustenance of an adult worker. In November 2024, the Brazilian city with the highest value of the basic food basket was São Paulo, with a value of over 828 Brazilian reals. By contrast, the city with the lowest basket price was Aracaju, with approximately 533 Brazilian reals.

Between January and May 2021, hotels in Florianápolis and Recife registered the highest average daily rates (ADR) among major Brazilian cities, at roughly 221 Brazilian reals. Based on the exchange rates of May 31, 2021, this figure amounts to approximately 42 U.S. dollars. The ADR is a key performance indicator used in the lodging industry to calculate the average revenue generated from an occupied room per day.

Among the presented cities, the daily TV consumption per person was highest in Manaus, located in northern Brazil, with 422 minutes (or seven hours and two minutes). An average Brazilian spent 377 minutes (six hours and 217 minutes) watching TV per day in 2019.

This statistic shows the age structure in Brazil from 2013 to 2023. In 2023 about 19.94 percent of Brazil's total population were aged 0 to 14 years. Population of Brazil Brazil is the fifth largest country in the world by area and population and the largest in both South America and the Latin American region. With a total population of more than 200 million inhabitants in 2013, Brazil also ranks fifth in terms of population numbers. Brazil is a founding member of the United Nations, the G20, CPLP, and a member of the BRIC countries. BRIC is an acronym for Brazil, Russia, India, and China, the four major emerging market countries. The largest cities in Brazil are São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Salvador. São Paulo alone reports over 11.1 million inhabitants. Due to a steady increase in the life expectancy in Brazil, the average age of the population has also rapidly increased. From 1950 until 2015, the average age of the population increased by an impressive 12 years; in 2015, the average age of the population in Brazil was reported to be around 31 years. As a result of the increasing average age, the percentage of people aged between 15 and 64 years has also increased: In 2013, about 68.4 percent of the population in Brazil was aged between 15 and 64 years.

Abstract In order to determine and compare the efficiency of different urban cooling strategies in two Latin American cities (Mendoza, Argentina and Campinas, Brazil), 18 scenarios that modified their percentage of vegetation and albedo level in urban envelopment materials were analysed. The scenarios were simulated using a high-resolution microclimatic model -ENVI-met 3.1. The possible associations between variables were evaluated through Principal Components Analysis. The result showed that the percentage of vegetation and the average albedo of the urban opaque surfaces explain 71.5 % of the behaviours within the urban canyons in both cities. The increase in vegetation could decrease the average temperature in Mendoza by up to 2.0 ºC, while in Campinas by up to 5.0 ºC. Increasing the albedo level in the urban envelopment raises the air temperatures in high-density scenarios of Mendoza and Campinas by up to 1.0 ºC. However, in the case of high albedo scenarios in horizontal surfaces and low albedo in verticals, there were reductions of 2.0 ºC in the city of Mendoza and 3.0 ºC in Campinas.

In 2018, hotels in the city of São Paulo, Brazil had an average daily rate of more than 314 Brazilian reals, up from 293.42 Brazilian reals in the previous year. In the past decade, the average daily rate peaked in 2014, when on average hotels in the city received 327.72 reals per occupied room.

As of June 2020, the average daily rate of superluxury hotels in the city of São Paulo, Brazil amounted to nearly 700 Brazilian reals. In contrast, a room in an economic hotel in the same city costed 190.55 Brazilian reals on average in the first half of that same year. The general average daily rate of hotels in São Paulo was at 300.5 Brazilian reals during the same period.

In 2018, hostels in the city of São Paulo, Brazil had an average daily rate of almost 53 Brazilian reals, up from 50.86 Brazilian reals in the previous year. In the past decade, the average daily rate peaked in 2014, when on average hostels in the city received 55.29 Brazilian reals per occupied room.

From 2018 to 2020, the average monthly income of the Rio de Janeiro's metropolitan area increased consistently. In 2024, the average income decreased to under 5,000 Brazilian reals in the region. Nevertheless, when excluding the city of Rio de Janeiro, the metropolitan area saw the average monthly salary increase every year until 2022, year in which the figure dropped to 2,687 Brazilian reals.
