    Description

    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.

    Variables measured
    White Population, White Population as Percent of Total White Population of South Carolina, White Population as Percent of Total Population of cities in South Carolina
    Measurement technique
    To measure the rank and respective trends, we initially gathered data from the five most recent American Community Survey (ACS) 5-Year Estimates. We then analyzed and categorized the data for each of the racial categories identified by the U.S. Census Bureau. Based on the required racial category classification, we calculated the rank. For geographies with no population reported for the chosen race, we did not assign a rank and excluded them from the list. It is possible that a small population exists but was not reported or captured due to limitations or variations in Census data collection and reporting. We ensured that the population estimates used in this dataset pertain exclusively to the identified racial categories and do not rely on any ethnicity classification, unless explicitly required.For further information regarding these estimates, please feel free to reach out to us via email at research@neilsberg.com.

    Market Size
    Description

    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.

    Description

    The Latin American residential real estate market, valued at $477.77 million in 2025, exhibits robust growth potential, projected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.32% from 2025 to 2033. This growth is fueled by several key factors. Rapid urbanization across major Latin American cities like Mexico City, São Paulo, and Bogotá is driving significant demand for housing, particularly apartments and condominiums. Furthermore, a growing middle class with increased disposable income is fueling demand for both affordable and luxury housing options. Government initiatives aimed at improving infrastructure and fostering economic development in various regions are also contributing to market expansion. The market is segmented by property type (apartments and condominiums, landed houses and villas) and geography (Mexico, Brazil, Colombia, and the Rest of Latin America), with Brazil and Mexico anticipated to represent the largest shares due to their larger populations and economies. While challenges such as economic volatility and fluctuating interest rates exist, the long-term outlook remains positive, driven by sustained population growth and ongoing investment in the sector by major players such as JLL, CBRE, MRV Engenharia, and others. However, the market faces some headwinds. Construction costs, particularly for materials, can be volatile and influence pricing. Regulatory hurdles and bureaucratic processes in some countries can slow down project development. Furthermore, ensuring sustainable and environmentally responsible construction practices is becoming increasingly important for developers to attract environmentally conscious buyers. Successfully navigating these challenges will be crucial for continued market expansion. The segment of landed houses and villas is expected to witness strong growth, albeit potentially at a slower pace than apartments and condominiums, driven by a demand for larger spaces and a preference for suburban living among higher-income demographics. The Rest of Latin America segment presents significant untapped potential for future growth as economies develop and infrastructure improves. Recent developments include: November 2023: CBRE, a prominent global consultancy and real estate services firm, unveiled its latest initiative, the Latam-Iberia platform. The platform's primary goal is to reinvigorate the real estate markets in Europe and Latin America while fostering investment ties between the two regions. By enhancing business collaborations and amplifying the visibility of real estate solutions, CBRE aims to catalyze growth in the sector., May 2023: CJ do Brasil, a subsidiary of multinational firm CJ Bio, completed its USD 57 million plant expansion in Piracicaba, 160 km from Brazil's capital. CJ Bio is renowned for its expertise in amino acid production. The expansion is projected to create 650 new job opportunities, and the investment also encompasses the establishment of residential, research, and development centers.. Key drivers for this market are: Increase in Population is Boosting the Residential Real Estate Market, Rapid Growth in Urbanization. Potential restraints include: Increase in Population is Boosting the Residential Real Estate Market, Rapid Growth in Urbanization. Notable trends are: Increase in Urbanization Boosting Demand for Residential Real Estate.

    Description

    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.

Description

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.
