Osasco, Industrial municipality in São Paulo metropolitan region, Brazil

The transformation of Osasco from a colonial settlement to an independent municipality occurred on February 19, 1962, marking its separation from São Paulo city.

The city reflects a strong Italian heritage through its name, derived from founder Antonio Giuseppe Agù's hometown in Turin province, Italy.

The municipality connects to São Paulo through multiple transportation options, including the CPTM rail system and major highway networks.

Osasco ranks as the fifth most populated municipality in São Paulo state, with manufacturing plants producing railroad cars, metallurgical goods, and auto accessories.
