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.

From 2000 to 2023, there was a steady increase in the number of deaths in São Paulo until 2019, leading to an exponential increase in the consecutive years, recording in 2021 the highest amount throughout the period shown with 105,070 deaths. In 2023, nearly 81,500 deaths were recorded

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.

This statistic shows the biggest cities in El Salvador in 2024. In 2024, approximately ****** thousand people lived in San Salvador, making it the biggest city in El Salvador.

A dataset listing Georgia cities by population for 2024.

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.

The South American city gas distribution market, valued at approximately $XX million in 2025, is projected to experience robust growth, driven by increasing urbanization, industrial expansion, and rising energy demands across the region. A Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) exceeding 2.00% is anticipated from 2025 to 2033, indicating a steady and significant market expansion. Key drivers include government initiatives promoting cleaner energy sources, coupled with expanding infrastructure development in key cities across Brazil, Argentina, and Chile. The Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) segment holds a significant market share due to its cost-effectiveness and versatility in transportation and industrial applications. However, the market faces challenges from fluctuating gas prices and the need for continued investment in pipeline infrastructure, especially in less developed areas within the "Rest of South America" segment. The market is segmented by gas type (CNG and PNG), end-user (industrial, power sector, residential & commercial, and transportation), and geography (Brazil, Argentina, Chile, and Rest of South America). Brazil, with its large population and industrial base, is expected to dominate the market, followed by Argentina and Chile. Key players like Petroleo Brasileiro SA, Companhia de Gas de Sao Paulo (Comgas), and Naturgy Energy Group SA are actively shaping the market landscape through expansion strategies, technological advancements, and strategic partnerships. The growth trajectory hinges on consistent investment in infrastructure, efficient regulatory frameworks, and sustained economic growth across South American nations. The residential and commercial sectors are poised for significant expansion driven by rising living standards and increased access to natural gas networks. However, competition among existing players and potential entry of new players will influence market dynamics and pricing strategies in the coming years. Recent developments include: August 2022: As part of Ambipar's initial investment of USD 5.5 million, it incorporates trucks equipped with compressed natural gas (CNG) technology, such as Scania R 410 6X2 models, into its fleet. Ambipar estimates a 20% reduction in carbon dioxide emissions in the Corridor after the first year of circulation of these new units. By incorporating compressed natural gas (CNG) trucks on a large scale, the Sustainable Corridor Project begins the process of changing its fleet's energy matrix to renewable and cleaner sources of power., May 2022: Compagas, Parana state's gas distribution company, and Brazilian logistic operator NEOgas started a pilot project to transport compressed natural gas (CNG) via natural gas-fueled trucks. The project aims to provide a greener and more cost-effective solution to the transportation of natural gas to the countryside of Brazil. The pilot project lasts around 30 days, with NEOgas compressing Compagas' natural gas at the Ponta Grossa station. The natural gas-fueled trucks from vehicle manufacturer Scania will then transport the gas daily for 130 km to the city of Arapoti, where the paper company BO Paper plans to use it.. Notable trends are: Power Sector to Dominate the Market.
