A.a growing income gap

Explanation:

Favela is the name given in Brazil to precarious or informal settlements that grow around or within the large cities of the country. This Portuguese term widely used in Brazil is synonymous with shantytown, commune or villa, in Latin America.

The Favelas: These are settlements that lack property rights, and constitute agglomerations of housing of a quality below the average. They suffer from deficiencies in basic infrastructure, urban services and also social facilities and / or are located in geologically inadequate or environmentally sensitive areas. In their search for affordable housing, the urban poor thus face a balance between location and property rights. The favelas offer proximity to jobs, commerce and urban equipment.
