- Abstract
Based on exploratory spatial data analysis (ESDA) the article maps the healthy urban spaces in Brazil and points the Social Determinants of Health (SDH), which can influence the quality of life in urban spaces. To map the healthy urban spaces in Brazil it considers how the rate of mortality from infectious and parasitic diseases behaves and how it relates with the Social Determinants of Health. The data used comes from the database of National Health System (DATASUS) and from Brazilian Demographic Census for the years 1980, 1991, 2000 and 2010. Results suggest an increasing randomness of healthy urban spaces, although such spaces are still concentrated in the South and Southeast.
