About Meu Bairro
Meu Bairro — is a platform that helps people understand neighborhoods beyond maps and listings.
It focuses on how neighborhoods feel, who they are suited for, and how daily life works in each area.
Why it exists
Choosing a neighborhood is harder than it should be.
- Information about neighborhoods is scattered across blogs, forums, and social media
- Most sources focus on individual places, not on the neighborhood as a whole
- It's difficult to compare areas objectively
- For newcomers and foreigners, local context is often missing or unclear
Meu Bairro exists to bring this information together and make neighborhood comparisons simpler and more transparent.
Who it's for
Meu Bairro is for people who want to better understand neighborhoods, including:
- People moving to a new city
- Families choosing where to live
- Remote workers exploring different areas
- Locals curious about other parts of the city
- Anyone who wants context, not just listings
Future & Sustainability
Meu Bairro is a family project built out of curiosity and real-life need by us — a husband-and-wife team 👫, our 1-year-old son 👶, and our Bengal cat 🐈. To keep it running and growing, we are exploring sustainable models that allow for deeper research and better tools.
We are open to partnerships, data-driven collaborations, and sponsorship opportunities that align with the goal of providing clear, high-quality neighborhood insights.
