This snapshot shows the weight of the west zone and large residential areas in urban organization. In extensive cities, neighborhoods function as their own hubs, gathering housing, commerce, and services.

Regions also have their own leaders
In the Midwest, Ceilândia appears as the most populous administrative region of the Federal District, with 287 thousand inhabitants. This data places the locality as the main population reference of the DF and the region.
In the North, the highlight is Jorge Teixeira, in Manaus, pointed out as the most populous neighborhood in the city, Amazonas, and the region, with 133 thousand inhabitants. In the Northeast, Boa Viagem, in Recife, leads in Pernambuco and the region, with about 125 thousand residents.
