Article History

Marília, city, west-central São Paulo estado (state), Brazil, lying between the Aguapeí and Peixe rivers in the highlands at 2,139 feet (652 metres) above sea level. Founded in 1611, it was made the seat of a municipality and given city status in 1928. Agriculture (rice, coffee, peanuts), livestock raising, and lumbering are regional activities. Marília’s industries include the extraction of nonferrous minerals, the processing of foodstuffs, and the production of liquor, chemicals, and pharmaceuticals. These goods are shipped to São Paulo, the state capital, about 320 miles (515 km) southeast, and to nearby cities such as Assis (50 miles [80 km] west) and Ourinhos (about 60 miles [97 km] south) by rail, road, and air. Pop. (2010) 216,745.
