The municipality, established in 1906 as São Bento village, transformed into a major industrial center after the construction of Replan petrochemical complex in 1972.

The population of Paulínia reflects Brazilian and Italian influences, with residents participating in religious festivals centered around Catholic and Protestant traditions.

The municipality connects to neighboring cities through an extensive network of highways and maintains regular bus services linking residential districts.
