Vila Boa is a municipality in northeastern Goiás state, Brazil.

Vila Boa is located on the extreme northeast limit of the Entorno do Distrito Federal microregion.

For the complete list of distances see Distâncias Rodoviárias Vila Boa was once a district (1988) of Formosa, and for years was just a small village with a gas station and a few houses on the main road to Salvador.

It has grown rapidly with the arrival of farmers from the south of the country in search of inexpensive land to plant soybeans and raise cattle.

The economy is based on agriculture (rice, coffee, sugarcane, and corn), cattle raising (34,000 head in 2006), services, public administration, and small transformation industries.
