The population of the greater metropolitan area is estimated at 11–13.5 million. It was Brazil’s capital until 1960, when Brasília took its place. Why such a high population density? Natural Increase is one reason for its growth - birth rate is higher than death rate. The population has also grown as the result of urbanisation (the growth of urban areas at the expense of rural areas). This has been caused by rural to urban migration. Millions of people have migrated from Brazil's rural areas to Rio. In Rio 65% of urban growth is a result of migration. This is caused by a variety of push and pull factors.
