The Roraima snapshot records three facilities, all in Boa Vista, and six network presences. 4wnet Telecomunicações - Roraima holds all six, and the other two sites list none. Boa Vista also has IXRR Internet Exchange Roraima, where seven networks peer, so some traffic stays in the state.

What a Roraima IP address tells you
Everything the snapshot records for Roraima sits in Boa Vista. 4wnet Telecomunicações - Roraima carries all six network presences in the state. DATACENTER - AMAZONIA TELECOM and PIX-MP - Ministério Público do Estado de Roraima appear in the record with no networks against them. IXRR Internet Exchange Roraima, in the same city, counts seven participants, one more than the facility presences, so at least some networks peer here without a recorded footprint in any of the three sites.
An address geolocated to Roraima carries that label from the record its operator published, not from a measurement of the device. Claro (AS22085), TIM (AS26615) and Vivo (AS26599, AS27699) route mobile subscribers through regional gateways, so a phone in Boa Vista can present an address that databases place in another state. The snapshot holds one city for Roraima, so a lookup returning the state is effectively returning Boa Vista whatever the connection's origin.
Read the origin ASN on the prefix and the netname in the registry entry instead of a city label. In a state whose whole record is one city, seven peers and six facility presences, geolocation has little to work with beyond what the operator declared. The ASN names the network announcing the block, and the netname shows what that network called it.

Questions
How many data centres are in Roraima?
Three facilities appear in the snapshot, all in Boa Vista: 4wnet Telecomunicações - Roraima, DATACENTER - AMAZONIA TELECOM and PIX-MP - Ministério Público do Estado de Roraima. Only the 4wnet site lists networks, six of them, which is the state's whole facility presence count.
Is there an internet exchange in Roraima?
Yes. IXRR Internet Exchange Roraima runs in Boa Vista with seven participants. Networks that join it can hand traffic to each other inside the state rather than carrying it to an exchange in another part of Brazil.
Can I get an IP address in Roraima?
Placement follows the operator's address registration, not a customer's choice. A block reads as Roraima when the network holding it registered it to an address in the state. Mobile addresses from Claro, TIM and Vivo are assigned by the carrier and can report a different state.
