Abstract
This knowledge note provides new
evidence on property ownership and taxation patterns across
genders in São Paulo (Brazil), the largest city in the
Americas, with 12 million inhabitants. We exploit microdata
on all commercial and residential properties to document the
share of total property and property wealth owned by women,
the geographic distribution of female-owned properties, and
the implications of this data for property taxes in the city.
