    Currently there is the recognition that social influences on health operate under various processes and one of them may be the context in which the person lives. The increase in health promotion policies generates interest in implementing interventions at the individual and collective, but before that, it becomes necessary to understand the issues that affect behaviors related to sedentary lifestyle and level of physical activity in different populations. The aim of this study was to identify and analyze active and sedentary behaviors of schoolchildren of urban and rural regions of the Espírito Santo from two databases from the project "SAÚDES Santa Maria de Jetibá" and "SAÚDES Vitória", both aimed at the aspects of research related to nutrition and health of schoolchildren aged 7 to 10 years. The sample consisted of 1242 children from Vitória and 528 from Santa Maria de Jetibá, totaling 1770 students of both sexes. Information on physical activity and sedentary behaviors were obtained from validated questionnaire. Statistical tests were made using SPSS software version 17.0. Most of the children were female (55.1%), normal weight (79%), nonwhite (52%), socioeconomic class C (41%). There were significant differences in time spent on physical and sedentary activities among groups. Urban school meet less the limits of 2 and 4 hours of daily screen. Urban children, mostly, were also considered "not active enough" and have shorter average daily of physical activities. Was concluded that rural schoolchildren are more active and spend less time on screen devices. These findings can support the design of different strategies for achieving the goals of stimulus programs to physical activity and reducing sedentary time in urban and rural contexts
