The literature on land reform in Brazil has shown that land tenure does not guarantee success in productive activities. In this sense, this article aims to investigate the potentialities of land reform as a policy of income distribution, settlement of men in the countryside and improvement of the settlers' quality of life, as well as to analyze the housing conditions and home infrastructure of the Antonio de Farias settlement, located in the state of Rio de Janeiro. The first part of this paper consisted of a brief review of the literature on the necessity and feasibility of land reform policy. The other part consisted of field research through a settlement questionnaire, analyzing the housing characteristics and home infrastructure. This questionnaire was randomly applied to the resident settlers of the nine nuclei of the study area. The instrument included a series of open and closed questions, and the research was primary. To assess the housing and infrastructure conditions of the rural households of the Antonio de Farias settlement, an index was calculated using the same methodology as Kageyama (2003), which became known as Iconi. As a result, there was a high level of the index, which indicates that Antonio de Farias settlers have a good housing structure.
