Vicente Pires

Vicente Pires is an administrative region in the Federal District spanning about 26 square kilometers with residential neighborhoods and agricultural land. The area sits in the Brazilian Highlands, combining urban housing structures with open green spaces.

The region grew from an agricultural colony in the 1970s and was named after Vicente Pires da Mota, who owned the original settlement. Those origins continue to shape the character of the place between rural history and urban growth.

Residents live where traditional rural connections blend with modern housing development. Local markets and neighborhood gatherings shape daily life and create social bonds between people.

The region connects easily to central Brasília through major highways DF-095, DF-085, and DF-079. Visitors should know that infrastructure relies on drainage systems during rainy seasons to maintain road conditions.

The region's name comes from the original landowner's farm, showing a strong connection to the area's agricultural past. Today, the remaining green spaces serve as reminders of those rural roots amid modern housing blocks.
