    Seropédica city center

    Before 1995, the current municipality of Seropédica was a district of the municipality of Itaguaí. Therefore, even after its emancipation, Seropédica continues having strong relations with the municipality from which it originated, just as all municipalities of the metropolitan agglomeration of Rio de Janeiro that were dismembered from other municipalities in the Grande Rio area during the 1990s.

    In Seropédica is located the Federal Rural University of Rio de Janeiro (Universidade Federal Rural do Rio de Janeiro - UFRRJ), and the municipality is crossed by the BR-116 highway, more accurately, by the stretch between Rio and São Paulo (Rodovia Presidente Dutra, Via Dutra, or simply Rodovia Rio-São Paulo).
