Xique-Xique
8.1
High score (8-10) · Your profile
Xique-Xique is a São Francisco River city of 50,000 in the central Bahia interior that is one of the most important river towns on the middle São Francisco. The city is named after the xique-xique cactus endemic to the caatinga and has a distinctive river commerce and fishing culture. The São Francisco river tourism circuit — boat trips on the river, the nearby Barra lake system — creates some visitor traffic. A foreign man here is unusual but the river town culture is more open to strangers than dry interior towns.
Mid score (6-8)
Xique-Xique has some river commerce and fishing economy that creates more social movement than typical interior towns but it's still a small, poor, hot city in the dry sertão. Conservative social culture. Limited social infrastructure.
Lower score (below 6)
Xique-Xique is a remote, very hot São Francisco River city with limited services and a social world organized around fishing and agriculture. Not viable for an outsider without specific purpose.
