While income has been instrumental in determining considered poor and extremely poor in Brazil, the multiple dimensions analyzed in the IDF give a more comprehensive view of the deficiencies in the cities in the state. Taking income as one-dimensional analysis, the municipalities with distribution concentrated in the mountainous region of the state. When the observation is carried out by the IDF dimensions shortages spread across all regions of the state, which confirms the multidimensionality as the best way of poverty analysis
