Resumo

Identity and place are subjective concepts related to the intrinsic feelings of each individual, the meanings of which are derived from the multiple interactions between people and their dwellingplaces. By examining which factors are involved and to what extent they may influence the process throughwhich individuals construct an identity with the places in which they live, we have sought to analyze the processinvolved in constructing a place-based identity, with residents in the municipalities of Cabo de Santo Agostinhoand Ipojuca. For this, we have used quantitative methods, especially descriptive data analyzes, and produceda statistical index so as to investigate the processes involved in constructing a place-based identity associated toa sense of belonging to the municipalities in which they live. Through our results, we have verified that factorssuch as age, migration status and the time spent living in the municipality have influenced the manner inwhich individuals construct a sense of belonging to the place they live.
