Uberlândia, 
Brazil
613,434 people lived in Uberlândia in 2025. It is the 883rd largest of the world's 12,138 cities, and the 28th largest in Brazil.
Like every city on this site, Uberlândia is counted as a built-up area seen from above rather than as a city government's territory. Why that changes the number.

How Uberlândia grew
Count 10 people in Uberlândia in 1975 and the same count gives 81.4 in 2025.
On the UN's projection it will have 609,392 people in 2050. It passed 250,000 people between 1985 and 1990.
projected (after 2025) · how sure the UN is: high moderate low
How to read this: each column is one of the UN's five-yearly estimates, 1975 through 2050, and taller means more people. Where a column is hatched the year has not happened yet. The strip under the columns is the UN's own confidence in each figure, palest where it is least sure; where it is blank the city was not on the list at all.

Where it is
How to read this: every dot is one of the 356 cities in Brazil in 2025, and a dot's area is how many people live there, the biggest being São Paulo. The ringed dot in colour is Uberlândia; the grey dots are the rest. The outlines around them are neighbouring countries.
Area and built-up land · km²
How much land it covers
In 2025, Uberlândia covered 122 km², and buildings, roads and other built-up land covered 42 km² of it. That is 68 m² of built-up land for each person, about a square 8 by 8 metres. Since 1975, its built-up land has grown to 4.1 times its size, and its people are 8.1 times as many.
How to read this: each pale square is the city's whole area, the strong square inside it the part that is built on; one scale for all three, so a bigger square is more land. Hatched is the UN's projection.
Of every 100 people in Brazil
Its share of Brazil
Of every 1,000 people in Brazil in 2025, 3 lived in Uberlândia, which is 613,434 people.
How to read this: shrink Brazil to 1,000 people and this is what you get. The coloured squares are the ones who would live in Uberlândia; the grey ones are everybody else, in other cities, in towns and out in the country.

How to read this: the figure in front of a name is where that city stands among the 12,138 cities the UN counted in 2025, and each bar is its people, on one scale per list. Numbers are missing where a city has fewer than 300,000 people and so has no page of its own.
Apparatus
Sources and method
The figures for Uberlândia are the UN's own, at five-year steps: an estimate for each of 1975 to 2025, then projection to 2050. Projected years are drawn hatched, and the UN publishes no range of uncertainty for a city. What a city means here, how the UN measures one, and why that number can differ from the one Uberlândia publishes about itself: how the figures here are put together.
