This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined.

This topic is opening foreseeing a possible scenario of “war of edition” about the pre-referred subject. The data hdi, as is shown in the article right now, was derived from the following site : http://www.atlasbrasil.org.br/ranking, at the options: RM and 2020 and describes the data of Greater São Paulo’s HDI for 2020 year.

 Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. House Blaster ^talk 02:13, 27 February 2023 (UTC) reply

Please let's go move the article to: "São Paulo (City)". LOSBY2 ( talk) 10:56, 18 July 2023 (UTC) reply

This is in the Demographics section.

Are the percentage changes for population growth correct? For example, the table shows, for the last two years:

2010 11,253,503 +0.76%

2021 12,396,372 +0.88%

However, percentage increase for these numbers is:

(12,396,372 - 11,253,503) / 11,253,503 * 100 = 10.16%

Am I completely misunderstanding what the percentage column is showing? 2603:6080:3D03:9684:78E3:2F05:C72:DA46 ( talk) 19:39, 4 November 2023 (UTC) reply

I think it’s hard to call Sao Paulo a humid subtropical city. If not for the elevation, it would have been completely tropical, and the elevation just makes nights cooler, but there’s no real difference during the day between July and January. דולב חולב ( talk) 23:46, 29 January 2024 (UTC) reply

It is less than 1C away from being tropical. But the boundaries have to be somewhere, and Köppen decided that 18C was a good boundary between tropical and subtropical. Uness232 ( talk) 03:55, 4 February 2024 (UTC) reply
