LOBAO, Mário. Brazilian rural Amazon: sociodemographic aspects. GOT [online]. 2019, n.17, pp.93-121. ISSN 2182-1267.  https://doi.org/10.17127/got/2019.17.006.

The objective is to analyze, sociodemographically, the rural territory of the Brazilian Amazon. Was used a qualitative exploratory approach. Demographically, the Amazonian rural society is still quite young. When this young population reaches the age of being economically active they end up migrating to urban centers. Women are a minority and migrate in greater intensity than men migrate. The social conditions of housing are precarious, mainly with the supply and access to running water, as well as the lack of adequate sanitation.

Palabras clave : Amazon; Rural Territory; Society; Demography.
