| Summary: | This research proposed to analyze the reasons why some counties of the southwestern region of Paraná presented population growth, being more dynamic, and others had negative rates of population growth. Thus, it is seek to determine the factors that differentiate the counties with growth from those with negative growth, based on socioeconomic characteristics, considering two distinct periods - 2000 and 2010. This analysis was made using the multivariate statistical method called Discriminant Analysis, dividing the 42 counties of the Southwest region into three groups: dynamic (group 1), stable (group 2) and depressed (group 3). Eight variables were selected from secondary data obtained through IPARDES. The results of the research show that the discrimination between counties occurs due to population concentration (population density) and the degree of industrialization. Both factors become attractive to new residents who are looking for better living conditions, better job oportunities, increased income and education, that is in search of a better quality of life |
