Almost all streets of the urban zone are paved, and water and sewage services are provided to all residents. The municipality does not have a rugged relief (the average elevation is 900m), and there are only three areas in which the altitude reaches 1100m above sea level. One of them is the Serra de Três Pontas (Three Tips Mountain), a place known in the region for its distinctive shape and natural environment. The streams Araras and Espera are the main water courses that pass through the municipality, and flow into the Furnas Dam. The rivers Verde and Sapucaí pass on the southern boundary and flow into the Furnas Dam as well. The Municipality is located on the basin of the Grande River. The suave climate favors the growth of coffee, the main economic wealth of the city; it is known as one of the largest producers of coffee in Brazil.
