Within this area of influence are the smaller cities of Natal, João Pessoa, Maceió, and Aracaju.

The Metropolitan Region is defined in federal and state legislation as consisting of 14 municipalities. Goiana was formerly a part, but left in March 2020. The Immediate Geographic Region (formerly termed microregion) around Recife defined by the IBGE encompasses additional outlying municipalities.
