Água Branca is a residential neighborhood in western São Paulo with tree-lined streets and modern apartment complexes scattered throughout. The area blends housing blocks with green spaces and is crossed by several major transportation corridors.
The area takes its name from a clear water stream that ran through it during the early development of western São Paulo. This early connection to water shaped how the neighborhood grew and developed over many decades.
