Abstract: The Rio das Velhas hydrographic basin is located in the Central region of Minas Gerais, with its source in the municipality of Ouro Preto, in the Cachoeira das Andorinhas Environmental Protection Area. The Rio das Velhas is the largest tributary in length of the São Francisco River basin, with 761 km, from its source to the point where it flows into the São Francisco River, in Barra do Guaicuí, district of Várzea da Palma (MG). Thus, the objective of this article is to characterize the Rio das Velhas hydrographic basin by its main physical, population and economic aspects throughout its territory. Analyzing the characteristics of the Rio das Velhas hydrographic basin in its entirety, the disparity in the distribution of income throughout the basin is notable, reflecting the difference in activities carried out in its different territories, as well as its population distribution.
