This invention aims to provide a carburized component realizing a larger strength for power transmission components such as gears, and a method of manufacturing the same. The carburized component of this invention, aimed at realizing the object, consists essentially of, in % by mass and both ends inclusive, C: 0.1-0.30%, Si: 0.80-1.50%, Mn: 0.30-1.20%, Cr: 2.0-5.5%, and the balance of Fe and inevitable impurities; has a mean C concentration over the range from the surface of the steel to a depth of 0.2 mm after vacuum carburization of 1.2% or more and 3.0% or less, and has a ratio of a carbide area over the range from the surface to a depth of 50 mum of 15% or more and 60% or less, has the carbide precipitated in a finely dispersed manner so that the carbide having a grain size of 10 mum or less accounts for 90% or more of the entire portion, and has a depth of a grain boundary oxide layer below the surface of 1 mum or less.
