Itaperuna

South America

Itaperuna is a municipality in the Brazilian state of Rio de Janeiro. The 2022 census counted 101,041 residents, up from 95,867 in 2010 and 86,720 in 2000, and the municipality covers about 1,105 square kilometres. The Wikipedia lead says little more than its state, population and area, so this entry stays to those supported facts. Its census history shows slow but steady growth, and later passes can add its founding, geography and economy from further sources.
