A campaign for collecting meteorological data during the lesser rainy season on the region was made. The data were used to calculate the thermal comfort index inside the neighborhoods and compare them with the characteristic social types in each neighborhood. The results indicated that the West and Central areas of the city were less comfortable, because they are more urbanized and have less vegetation than other areas, while the East and West areas were more comfortable, with more vegetated areas and predominance of low buildings. The analysis indicated that there is not a well-defined pattern between the neighborhoods social types and theirs thermal comfort conditions, because the surface characteristics are more significant to the local microclimate changes.porAcesso AbertoClimaUrbanizaçãoSegregação socialConforto térmicoBelém - PAPará - EstadoAmazônia brasileiraVariabilidade espacial do conforto térmico e a segregação social do espaço urbano na cidade de Belém, PASpatial variability of thermal comfort and social segregation of urban space in the city of Belém, PAArtigo de Periódico
