Bento Ribeiro is a middle-class neighborhood in the North Zone of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

It is the birthplace of the professional football player Ronaldo and the place where the famous television host Xuxa lived in her childhood.

After being elected councilman in Rio de Janeiro, Jair Bolsonaro chose to acquire a residence on Divisória Street, located in Bento Ribeiro.

It was at this address that he shared his home with his wife, Rogéria Nantes, and their three children, Flávio, Carlos, and Eduardo, until around the mid-1990s when the family moved to Tijuca.
