The aim of this study are the socioenvironmental priorities in poor neighborhoods. The socioenvironmental priorities are considered as the material and immaterial aspects which determine the decent life conditions of the population and, therefore, they need to be attended and supplied in the first instance. This research consulted the priorities in eight poor neighborhoods of the city of Goiânia, Goiás capital, according to the information provided by the Instituto Mauro Borges. Goiânia is a planned city but suffered an accelerated urbanization and a disorganized occupation caused, mainly, by Brasília´s construction and the Cerrado´s occupation by agribusiness. The research was developed with the local leaderships and the social representative agents of the selected neighborhoods. There were conducted ten interviews in each neighborhood and defined the socialenvironmental priorities of their residence areas. For each neighborhood were defined three main priorities, numbering eleven priorities in common. The most immediate conclusion is that seciurity and health are the most claimed priorities, which coincide with the demands of other Brazilian cities.
