It is located in the Espinharas River valley, surrounded by the Borborema Plateau to east and south, and by the pediplain Sertanejo to the west. It originated from the village of Patos, spun off from the Parish of Nossa Senhora do Bom Sucesso de Pombal on October 6, 1788.[3]
The city is 306 km from the city of João Pessoa, the center of its immediate and intermediate geographic regions. It stands out as an educational, commercial, banking, religious and health center, both in the back country of Paraíba, and in areas of Pernambuco and Rio Grande do Norte.[4] It is the third most important municipality in the state considering the economic, political and social aspects (behind João Pessoa and Campina Grande).[5] According to IBGE estimates for 2021, it is the fourth most populous municipality in the state with 108,766 inhabitants.
