Urban segregation is a social phenomenon resulting from inequalities in relation to the location and the goods in the city. A manner to portray segregation is consider the spatial distribution of the economic and demographic aspects of the population. The present study builds an index of spatial segregation that summarizes some urban demographic characteristics of Uberaba, MG. Quantitative methods are used and applied to cartography of synthesis. Were used data from the 2010 IBGE Demographic Census Tracts. At the end, the cartographic model was statistically validated. The results shows that, from the 405 sectors analyzed, 20.83% have high and very high spatial segregation. Cumulatively, the indexes with medium, low and very low segregation add up to 79.17%, denoting a less critical quantitative. There is a transictional gradient between groups in space, going from more segregated census tracts in the periphery to less segregated in the center, similar to the pattern observed in metropolitans and big cities. The study shows the spaces in a condition of segregation, however, adequate explanations of these characteristics require the approach of the historical and political processes that led these populations to inhabit these spaces.
