A urbanização em Caicó/RN: uma análise das transformações socioespacias na zona leste da cidade. Orientador: Iapony Rodrigues Galvão. 2025. 13 f. Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (Graduação em Geografia) - Centro de Ensino Superior do Seridó, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Caicó, 2025.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/handle/123456789/62359This article addresses the socio-spatial transformations that took place in the East Zone of Caicó, RN, over the course of the urbanization process in recent decades. The aim is to analyze how urban changes have impacted the territorial configuration and the living conditions of the local population, with an emphasis on the socio- economic disparities that emerged from this disorganized growth. The research highlights improvements in infrastructure and public services, such as paving and water supply, but also points to the challenges faced by low-income populations, who feel pressured by real estate appreciation and gentrification, leading to socio-spatial selectivity. Through field data and questionnaires applied to the region's residents, it was possible to identify the inhabitants' perceptions of the changes, showing that while some value the progress, others, particularly those with fewer resources, face difficulties in adapting to the new urban context. The analysis concludes that, although urbanization has brought some benefits, there is an urgent need for more inclusive and equitable public policies to reduce inequalities and ensure sustainable and accessible urban development for allAttribution 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/br/UrbanizaçãoSeletividadezona lestesocioespacialCaicóUrbanizationSelectivityEast zoneSocio-spatialA urbanização em Caicó/RN: uma análise das transformações socioespacias na zona leste da cidadeThe urbanization in Caicó/RN: analysis of socio-spatial transformations in the city's eastern zonebachelorThesisCNPQ::CIENCIAS HUMANAS::GEOGRAFIA
