In 2025, approximately 23 million people lived in the São Paulo metropolitan area, making it the biggest in Latin America and the Caribbean and the sixth most populated in the world. The homonymous state of São Paulo was also the most populous federal entity in the country. The second place for the region was Mexico City with 22.75 million inhabitants. Brazil's cities Brazil is home to two large metropolises, only counting the population within the city limits, São Paulo had approximately 11.45 million inhabitants, and Rio de Janeiro around 6.21 million inhabitants. It also contains a number of smaller, but well known cities such as Brasília, Salvador, Belo Horizonte and many others, which report between 2 and 3 million inhabitants each. As a result, the country's population is primarily urban, with nearly 88 percent of inhabitants living in cities. Mexico City Mexico City's metropolitan area ranks sevenths in the ranking of most populated cities in the world. Founded over the Aztec city of Tenochtitlan in 1521 after the Spanish conquest as the capital of the Viceroyalty of New Spain, the city still stands as one of the most important in Latin America. Nevertheless, the preeminent economic, political, and cultural position of Mexico City has not prevented the metropolis from suffering the problems affecting the rest of the country, namely, inequality and violence. Only in 2023, the city registered a crime incidence of 52,723 reported cases for every 100,000 inhabitants and around 24 percent of the population lived under the poverty line.

As of 2023, the top five most densely populated cities in Latin America and the Caribbean were in Colombia. The capital, Bogotá, ranked first with over ****** inhabitants per square kilometer.

IntroductionWe aimed to examine utilitarian bicycle use among adults from 18 large Latin American cities and its association with socio-economic position (education and income) between 2008 and 2018.MethodsData came from yearly cross-sectional surveys collected by the Development Bank of Latin America (CAF). A total of 77,765 survey respondents with complete data were used to estimate multilevel logistic regression models with city as random intercept and year as random slope.ResultsIndividuals with high education and high-income levels had lower odds of using a bicycle compared with participants with lower education and income levels. These associations, however, changed over time with the odds of bicycle use increasing for all groups, especially among individuals with the highest education and income levels.DiscussionOur results confirm the broadening appeal of bicycling across socio-economic positions in several Latin American cities and reinforce the importance of considering policies aimed at supporting and enhancing bicycle travel for all users.

Based on land area, Brazil is the largest country in Latin America by far, with a total area of over 8.5 million square kilometers. Argentina follows with almost 2.8 million square kilometers. Cuba, whose surface area extends over almost 111,000 square kilometers, is the Caribbean country with the largest territory.

Brazil: a country with a lot to offer

Brazil's borders reach nearly half of the South American subcontinent, making it the fifth-largest country in the world and the third-largest country in the Western Hemisphere. Along with its landmass, Brazil also boasts the largest population and economy in the region. Although Brasília is the capital, the most significant portion of the country's population is concentrated along its coastline in the cities of São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro.

South America: a region of extreme geographic variation

With the Andes mountain range in the West, the Amazon Rainforest in the East, the Equator in the North, and Cape Horn as the Southern-most continental tip, South America has some of the most diverse climatic and ecological terrains in the world. At its core, its biodiversity can largely be attributed to the Amazon, the world's largest tropical rainforest, and the Amazon river, the world's largest river. However, with this incredible wealth of ecology also comes great responsibility. In the past decade, roughly 80,000 square kilometers of the Brazilian Amazon were destroyed. And, as of late 2019, there were at least 1,000 threatened species in Brazil alone.

Latin American fertility study conducted between 1964-66. The seven cities included in the study are Bogota, Buenos Aires, Mexico City, Caracas, Panama City, Rio de Janeiro, and San Jose (Costa Rica). The three largest Latin American cities included were Buenos Aires, Mexico and Rio de Janeiro. Medium sized cities were represented by Bogota and Caracas. The smallest cities included were Panama City and San Jose. Individuals surveyed were women, 20-50 years of age and all marital statuses. These city studies were conducted from 1964-66 in each country by national institutions with the design and supervision of the U.N. Demographic Training Center, CELADE, in Santiago. The Community and Family Study Center of the University of Chicago standardized the codes and the Population Council organized them into the present format. Topics included urbanization, levels and trends of fertility, attitudes and opinions toward desired family size and family planning, use of contraceptives, attitudes toward their use, and means of communicating about them. Additional demographic, economic, social and psychological details were also gathered.

Dataset and full R script used in the data analysis of the paper "Searching for the lost treasure: An urban shelter for overlooked pollinators in one of the most urbanised cities of southern South America".

Summary:

Insect pollinators are essential and their conservation should be a priority for both ecological and agricultural reasons, especially in the remaining green spaces within highly urbanised cities. We studied the diversity of flower visitors associated with a remnant of native vegetation in the city of Cordoba (Argentina), one of the largest cities in South America. We recorded 198 insect species from six orders (Hymenoptera, Diptera, Lepidoptera, Coleoptera, Thysanoptera and Hemiptera) interacting as potential pollinators with the flowers of 94 plant species. We identified the pollinators to the lowest possible taxonomic level and confirmed the identifications through a collaborative project using a non-profit biodiversity social network (iNaturalist 2024). The plant-pollinator interaction network was significantly modular, with 178 of the 198 pollinators playing a peripheral role. We focused our study on these peripheral pollinators, which are often neglected in ecological studies. We conducted a bibliographic search to understand the requirements of these peripheral pollinators, which are often neglected in ecological studies. We categorised their needs to complete their life cycle and persist over time in three broad categories: flowers to feed on, places to reproduce and additional resources.

Here we produced the first 10 m resolution urban green space (UGS) map for the main urban clusters across 371 major Latin American cities as of 2017. Our approach applied a supervised classification of Sentinel-2 satellite imagery and UGS samples derived from OpenStreetMap (OSM). The overall accuracy of this UGS map in 11 randomly selected cities was 0.87, evaluated by independently collected validation samples (‘ground truth’). We further improved mapping quality through a visual inspection and additional sample collection. The resulting UGS map enables studies to measure area, spatial configuration, and human exposures to UGS, facilitating studies about the relationship between UGS and human exposures to environmental hazards, public health outcomes, and environmental justice issues in Latin American cities.UGS in this map series includes grass, shrub, forest, and farmland, and non-UGS included buildings, pavement, roads, barren land, and dry vegetation.The UGS map series includes three sets of files:(1) binary UGS maps at 10 m spatial resolution in GEOTIFF format (UGS.zip), with each of the 371 cities being an individual map. Mapped value of 1 indicates UGS, 0 indicates non-UGS, and no data (with value of -32768) indicates areas outside the mapped boundary or water bodies;(2) a shapefile of mapped boundaries (Boundaries.zip). The boundary file contains city name, country name and its ISO-2 country code, and an ID field linking each city's boundary to the corresponding UGS map.(3) .prj files containing projection information for the binary UGS maps and boundary shapefile. The binary UGS maps are projected with World Geodetic System (WGS) 84 / Pseudo-Mercator projected coordinate system (EPSG: 3857), and the boundary shapefile is projected with WGS 1984 geographic coordinate system (EPSG: 4326)Reference: A 10 m resolution urban green space map for major Latin American cities from Sentinel-2 remote sensing images and OpenStreetMap, published by Scientific Data [link].Citation: Ju, Y., Dronova, I., & Delclòs-Alió, X.
