The population dynamics in the metropolitan space is related to the social organization of the territory, in which the various elements of the urban structure—such as access to housing, the labor market, services, and mobility system, among others—influence the conditions of reproduction, movement and location of different social groups in space. The objectives of this work are to analyze some recent aspects of population movements in the Metropolitan Region of Rio de Janeiro and assess how this population dynamics helps to explain the changes in the social organization of its territory. Moreover, given the population aging that currently affects all areas of the metropolis, spatial mobility is considered an important element to understand the present metropolitan dynamics.
