The settlements in the Amazon are critical to the distribution of land, but its implementation still has many environmental and social problems, which has led to criticism of the sustainability conditions thereof. In recent years, have been sought to develop methods for monitoring rural settlements through indicators of sustainability, but the challenges are still enormous. Regardless of the method used, studies show that the main steps in the analysis of the sustainability of settlements are the identification of themes, setting indicators, defining the limits of the indicators and evaluation of indicators in building sustainability index. Thus, this study aims to examine the level of sustainability of settlements of Pará, through the Barometer of Sustainability (BS), comparing two types of settlements: Conventional Settlement Projects (PAC) and Differentiated Settlement Projects (PAD). Twenty-eight 28 indicators were extracted from an environmental diagnosis made by the National Institute of Colonization and Agrarian Reform - INCRA and tested to BS tool for 12 settlements selected. The results show that there is a slight difference between the settlements, especially in relation to the environmental dimension, but the two terms of settlements occupy the same position on the scale of the Barometer of Sustainability to Potentially Unsustainable.
