Under the National Development Regional Policy and Promotion Program Sustainability of Sub-regional Spaces, debates emerge wrapped around the articulation and implementation of actions to support the socioeconomic development of regions. From this perspective, this paper analyzes the profile of centrality and socioeconomic development of the municipalities that make up the Vale do Ribeira/Guaraqueçaba region in Brazil, in the period 2005 and 2016. For the analysis, centrality and regional disparity indicators were used, which have as parameters the Gross Domestic Product (GDP), the population and socioeconomic data. The Centrality and Disparity indicators reflect the hierarchy of places related to market areas, defined both by the population contingent and by the urban productive structure of the regions, especially by the ability to generate jobs and product. The results of this study showed that Cajati city in the state of São Paulo, and Paranaguá city in the state of Paraná are the central places in the Vale do Ribeira/ Guaraqueçaba region, with a centrality index higher than the other municipalities.
