No. 032 Land use Campinas Metropolitan Region 1/4

Land use and land cover

Between cane and city, islands of forest

Map of the 20 municipalities of the Campinas Metropolitan Region, in transverse Mercator projection, covered pixel by pixel by the MapBiomas 2024 classification. The dark grey of urban areas forms a continuous axis from Americana and Santa Bárbara d'Oeste to Campinas, Valinhos and Vinhedo, with another patch at Indaiatuba. The ochre of sugarcane dominates the west; the cream of the mosaic of uses and the straw yellow of pasture cover the east, dotted with the dark green of forest in Morungaba, Itatiba and Pedreira. A callout points to the largest forest fragment, 8.6 km², in Itatiba. In the panel, a strip splits the region’s area into the ten classes, and bars show the urban share of six municipalities. — Fig. 032 Campinas Metropolitan Region (SP) EPSG:4674 Source: MapBiomas, IBGE

The grey patch of the city already covers 21.1% of the 3,791 km² of the Campinas Metropolitan Region, and 72.6% of Hortolândia. To the west, sugarcane takes half of Santa Bárbara d'Oeste (49.3%) and 39.7% of Cosmópolis. To the east, in the hills of Morungaba, Itatiba and Pedreira, the forest holds out in islands: 7,743 forest fragments, only 31 of them larger than 1 km². The largest, in Itatiba, covers 8.6 km². The most common class is none of these but the mosaic of uses (29.3%): pastures, small fields and country plots that the satellite cannot tell apart at 30 m.

No. 033 Census · income Campinas Metropolitan Region 2/4

Households per km²

Half the homes on 3.4 % of the ground

The 2022 Census counted 1,157,476 occupied households in the 20 municipalities of the Campinas Metropolitan Region, home to 3,179,156 people. Half of those homes fit into 129 km², 3.4% of the region’s area. The map colours each of the 6,548 census tracts by households per km² and shows the city in layers: central Campinas and the neighbourhoods of Sumaré, Hortolândia and Americana above 5,000, the fringe of housing estates between 1,000 and 5,000 and, all around, the countryside, below 100. Hortolândia is the densest municipality, with 1,295 households per km²; Morungaba the least dense, with 33. Second plate of the collection “Campinas Metropolitan Region”.

No. 034 Census · income Campinas Metropolitan Region 3/4

Household head income

Income draws another border

Map of the Campinas Metropolitan Region with its 6,548 census tracts coloured by the median monthly nominal income of the household head in 2022, in minimum wages, on a viridis ramp from yellow (up to 1 minimum wage) to deep purple (over 5). The teal of 2 to 3 minimum wages dominates the urban patches; blue and purple gather in Campinas, Valinhos, Vinhedo, Paulínia and Indaiatuba; the light green of 1 to 2 minimum wages appears in the west and on the rural edges. Tracts without data are hatched. A callout points to a tract in Indaiatuba with a median of R$ 28,000. In the panel, each class has a bar with its share of the region’s household heads. — Fig. 034 Campinas Metropolitan Region (SP) EPSG:4674 Source: IBGE

In 2022, the Brazilian minimum wage was R$ 1,212 a month. In the Campinas Metropolitan Region, 47% of household heads lived in census tracts where the heads’ median income did not exceed two minimum wages; 8.2% lived in tracts above five. The map colours each tract by median income and draws a border that is not the municipal one: in Vinhedo, Valinhos and Indaiatuba, one head in three lives in tracts above three minimum wages; in Hortolândia and Sumaré, one in ten; in Monte Mor, under 3%. The highest median, R$ 28,000 (23 minimum wages), belongs to a tract in Indaiatuba. Third plate of the collection “Campinas Metropolitan Region”.

No. 035 Hydrography Campinas Metropolitan Region 4/4

Riparian reserves of Campinas

Where water rises, the forest is missing

Map of the municipality of Campinas, in transverse Mercator projection, with the stream network drawn as thin strips coloured by land use inside the permanent preservation area: dark green for forest, straw yellow for human-altered land, dark grey for built-up area. Small blue dots mark 1,671 springs, and lakes and reservoirs appear in light blue. Green dominates the dense network in the east; grey fills the streams of the urban centre and west; yellow spreads across the rural south and north. A callout points to a spring in the centre: 49 springs under the city. In the panel, a strip splits the reserve area by land use class, and bars show which class the springs fall in. — Fig. 035 Municipality of Campinas (SP) EPSG:4674 Source: FBDS, IBGE

Brazil’s Forest Code requires a strip of protected vegetation along every river, around every spring and on the shores of reservoirs: the permanent preservation areas, or APPs. In Campinas they add up to 108 km², 13.6% of the municipality, drawn over 1,682 km of streams and 1,671 springs. Only 26.4% of that strip is forest. The rest is pasture, cropland and bare soil (57.9%) or city (14.3%). Of the springs, 325 lie in forest and 1,261 in human-altered land; 49 have ended up under the streets and roofs of the urban area. On the map, green thickens in the east, in the hills of Sousas and Joaquim Egídio, and vanishes in the centre, where the streams run between houses. Fourth plate of the collection “Campinas Metropolitan Region”.
