The present work is a critical-dialectical analysis about the processes and locations of socialization and sociabilization of nerd youth in the Urban Area of Manaus-AM. The main objective is to analyze from a historical, social and geographical perspective how and in which places nerd youth have established themselves to develop their youth culture, as well as their territorial scope in space and in virtual media, explaining the possible reasons for the rise of this tribe historically, such as the consolidation of this group in the world market and the growth of identification subgroups are understood in this research, through the existing bibliographic material and reports from the nerds themselves. For the formulation of the methodology, data were collected using a semi structured questionnaire, with open and closed questions, to trace an identity profile of the participants, ensuring qualitative and quantitative data regarding the chosen method. Followed by interviews to collect stories and personal experiences, these questions were answered by participants who identified themselves as part of the nerd culture in some degree, with young people between 14 and 29 years old and adults between 30 and 50 years old. It was noticed how the process of socialization of these young nerds is taking place in a context of intense urbanization and cultural integration and flexibilization of the term youth resulting from globalization. They are living in the city and are present on social media, being characterized as a culture for consumption, technological and with multiple territorialities. Key-Words: Youth Sociability; Nerds; Place; Territoriality.
