The housing shortage in Brazil is the result of the appropriation of Geographic Space through the capitalist mode of production. Analyzing this reality implies understanding a broad and complex process of segregationist practices that preserve social differentiation in order to maintain the privileges of an elite, and express, as its main product, the materialization of the precariousness of the right to housing. In this sense, this work aims to highlight the occurrence of urban occupations in Uberlândia (MG) as a result of the unequal reproduction of its urban space. The methodology was based mainly on the collection, systematization and analysis of secondary data, obtained through satellite images, as well as news from local newspapers. In total, the occurrence of eleven occupations was found between 2010 and 2020, in addition to three repossessions referring to occupations initiated in 2006, 2011 and 2014. Three other cases of occupations prior to the time frame established for this research, but still active, were also discussed.
