Method: epidemiological, ecological, quantitative study using a descriptive approach. Secondary source data including sociodemographic and clinical variables and location of dengue cases. Descriptive statistics were used and maps of the quantiles of the cases were presented, as well as the distribution by neighborhoods. Results: there were indications that, although notifications were observed over the entire area, the disease mainly proliferated in Centro, Centros A and B and Villa Aurora, considered populous neighborhoods. It was also observed that areas with greater numbers of cases were located near rivers, streams and areas of environmental protection. Conclusion: the geographic picture of dengue should warn researchers and the health management of the municipality about the behavior of the disease, aiming for efficient planning and implementation of prevention and control actions.
