The socioeconomic changes observed in the country in the past decades have been studied and researched in recent years and have given different classifications. The "New Middle Class" is a new therm. According to the studies, with the increase of income of the Brazilian families, many of them got into the middle class, in a range between R$ 291,00 and R$ 1054,00 per capita. Other studies realize that, far beyond the income, the connexion of other factors need to be considered , such as work and education, for example, and so it appears more appropriate to give to the group the name of the "New Working Class". In this sense, this dissertation aimed to understand the socio-spatial dynamics of Goiania's Northwest Region in 2010, to identify whether the defining elements of the "New Middle Class" and the "New Working Class" could be applied to the delimited area. We adopted the methodology bibliographical and statistical on the NorthWest Region and the guiding themes of work, followed by the preparation of charts, tables and maps that supported our considerations and discussions. In this study, we showed that the Northwest Region of Goiânia has, in 2010, a dynamic quite different from its genesis occurred in 1979 with the collective struggle for urban land. To understand this process, we developed a timeline and each step was assigned the name of a neighborhood in the region namely: Esperança (1979-1981), Finsocial (1982-1987), Vitória (1988-2001) and Triunfo ( 2002-2010), besides of the intermediate phase, which we call Tremendão (1979-2010). Based on the analysis, we found that the population of the Northwest Region is a representation of the "New Working Class", justified by the low education, long work hours, although with enormous changes in income and consumption pattern.
