Resumo(s)
The depopulation of Portugal’s interior presents a crucial socio-demographic
challenge, manifesting in widening disparities between major cities and inland
regions. This study examines factors influencing depopulation in Portuguese
municipalities, using data from PORDATA (2022). Through Linear Discriminant
Analysis on twenty quantitative variables spanning education, demographics,
health, and employment, municipalities are categorised by population density.
The analysis reveals significant differences between groups across all variables,
reinforcing the differentiation by population density. The model achieves
a 71.2% correct classification rate, highlighting education and health variables
as pivotal contributors to group discrimination.
