Positioned 777 meters above sea level, Pará de Minas extends across 551 square kilometers of land in southeastern Brazil.

The municipality maintains six distinct districts including Pará de Minas, Córrego do Barro, Carioca, Ascensão, Torneiros, and Tavares de Minas.

The municipality provides public services through its official website and maintains postal codes ranging from 35660-000 to 35665-999.

The inhabitants of Pará de Minas carry two specific demonyms: papagaiense in Portuguese and paraminense in Italian.
