The paper aims to map the homicides that victimize individuals residing in Porto Alegre between the years 2015 and 2018, identifying their main characteristics, as well as the neighborhoods where they lived and died. Based on data from the Mortality Information System (SIM) provided by the Municipal Health Department, the paper analyzes the profile of the victims in relation to age, gender and race. The QGis software was used to map the life and death sites of the murdered youth, aged between 15 and 29 years. Thus, it was possible to reaffirm the idea that homicides mainly victimize young black males. However, the age curve showed a peak of victims between 15 and 19 years old, which was not a reality a decade ago. In addition, it was noted the proportional decrease of white victims, as well as a greater women representation. Finally, in relation to life and death places, while there is a strong concentration in the neighborhoods Rubem Berta, Restinga, Santa Tereza, Sarandi and Lomba do Pinheiro, it was also possible to verify a growing territorial homicides spread.
