Reliability Tier2
A Brazilian religion-and-society research and journalism site presenting the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE) census figures directly and comparing the two named census years side by side, rather than the primary IBGE tables themselves; a credible secondary compilation of a named government statistical release.
