Warning: This map is Stank as hell. You been warned, yo. You been warned.
Architecture in the city varies, but is ultimately at the peak of human engineering and design. Tall, beautiful buildings with reflective glass line the city, getting larger and taller the closer you get to the 6th District.
District 1, however, sports the lower end architectural design, and it is unlikely to spot a building higher than thirteen floors.
Lush foliage sits at every corner of the city, and the ‘roads’ are elevated so as to not interrupt the wildlife and the natural environment below. Holographic technology aesthetically removes support structures beneath the roads, and other elevated areas, to appear visually appealing.
District 6, although it is not in the center of the city, is referred to as ‘City Center’ by the media. City Center sports the finest architecture, technology, and holographic equipment that money can possibly buy.
District 6 holds the majority of the water, and the back of the district can stretch on for miles with clear blue.

District 6 and District 5
-
Chancel Headquarters is the tallest structure in the city, and is seen overlooking the the water before the end of the Dome.
No one has access to District 6, however, and those whore are in District 4 or 5 can only look on in awe and wonder.
District 5
Upper Class Apartments are the most common form of upper class living. Apartments such as these are only found in District 5, and can only be afforded by high income households. Those who retain high income often work in IT, Development, Robotics, Genetics, Medical Fields, High Ranking Police Officers, Business CEO’s, Famous members of Society, and some employees of Chancel.
__________________________________________________________________
Upper Class Housing is located in District 5, and is often mansions or large estates, built primarily around lush natural lands. Unlike the majority of the city, who had brought in natural wildlife from around the globe to populate the confines of the city for people to marvel at as they go by, wildlife is restricted in the Residential Section of District 5.
Homes are unique, and the styles within them mimic the common architecture found in Upper Class Apartments. However, the interior is painted or furnished to the owner’s particular preference.

District 4 and District 3
-
District 4 is dedicated to shopping, sports, recreation, retail and general leisure. Districts 3 and 5 both have easy access to the District, as the walls are not as heavy with security. However, Chancel Officers and APD patrol these districts with frightening precision. Member of both the Middle Class and Upper Class are known to mingle here. It isn’t entirely uncommon to see a lower class citizen wandering about, but Security will remove them in time.
Shops of all shapes and kind litter the green streets- fashion, electronics, restaurants, furniture, ‘exotic’ goods- whatever you are after, you are sure to find it in District 4. Easily the most trafficked of Districts, it isn’t unusual to see waves of expressionless individuals roaming about the streets during ‘Socialization’ or ‘Eat’ times. Be careful, though- all of them are programmed to notice when something is out of the ordinary and run to the nearest Chancel Officer in sight.
Beneath the busied ‘Roadways,’ the shops, and the clamour lies the natural wildlife of the area- take a walk through the parks, but be advised that Chancel Security is tighter below the Shopping District, and if you are to take a shortcut through District 4 Parks, I would recommend being as subtle as possible.
District 3
Middle Class Apartments are the most common of people living within District 3. Whilst they may not be raking in millions, the citizens who can afford the small slices of paradise are respected, as they pull in an above average income. Those that can afford these places are usually in hard physical labour, physical Engineering, Architecture, Sizable Business owners, Nurses and Family Doctors, Historians, and lower end Robotics.
______________________________________________________________
Middle Class housing is located in District 3, and housing size varies. Home to the labour district, as in the manufacture and trades district, many of these houses are medium estates with interesting custom designs. Some small and large estates exist as well.
It is not uncommon for people to higher end things, although the houses do tend to change hands often, and the interior is not as customized to each owner.
_________________________________________________________________
Whilst the West Section of District 3 is the residential district for the Middle Class, the East is the dedicated Labour District. Here, factories run, Engineering plans are deciphered and manufactured, and Chancel creates the daily necessities for life. Some of the lower end positions, such as factory line workers or custodians, live in the smaller houses of the Middle Class district, if not the District 1. However, those who do hard physical labour in order to engineer or produce with expert craftsmanship are granted enough income to sustain the larger homes in District 3.
Most of the work is sustained through people, and the power required to run the factories, as well as the MATERIALS- such as fine metals, plastics, etc, are said to ‘come from our partners in the south,' according to ‘City Officials.’ Who knows, perhaps the answer will be revealed with the rest of the truth.

District 2 and District 1
-
District 2 is miles upon miles of farmland, sporting both crops and animals for food production, as well as other products stemming from plants and animals. Anything from leathers to cloths- though most are made synthetic these days, and thus the majority of the fields are for tilled for food and spices. Many people are reminded of just how large (Approximately 2,800 KM2) Aurora actually is upon visiting the endless expanse of food production and animal sanctuaries.
Coming up to the edge of District 2, the District 1 wall stands tall and menacing. However, from District 2, the wall has been ‘glamoured’ to appears as though a great mountainous divide stands tall over the Slums, preventing anyone from viewing the entirely unpleasant place altogether.
District 1
The Slums are, unfortunately, one of the oldest districts in the City. District 1 was possibly built first, and has been utterly forgotten since then. No District Upgrades have been made, no technological installations, no holographic glamours, nothing. The buildings are crumbling with age, and the residents are dying young.
Residents of this district find themselves in abysmal conditions, and do what they can to get by. Police Officers at the lower end of the APD patrol these areas like hawks, arresting people left and right, but it does nothing to stave off the chaos in the Forgotten District. With no Chancel Security Officers in sight, it’s a place filled with debauchery, crime, and desperation.
The wall that divides District 1 and District 2 looms over like a shadow of darkness, providing little light for the considerably overpopulated, tiny section to the north. There are mandatory clinics that everyone within the district goes to to receive their shot. Nivalis is stressed in District 1 above all others- they are the farthest to the north, after all.
____________________________________________________________________
District 1, the lowest numbered district, is considered to be the Slums. Much of it is walled off, in order to ‘Keep the uneducated Masses Out.’ Some places are falling apart, some are tiny, others are inhospitable. The homeless population of the city resides here, amongst the old, ruined building and shady alley ways. Those who live in District 1 make an average to very low income per household, if any income at all. These professions are usually related to fast food, retail, dead end jobs, or grunt office work with little to no promotion opportunities. News stands that are not affiliated with Chancel have been forced to the Slums. The Police find themselves patrolling here the most- Chancel operatives will not usually go this far North, for some odd reason.
Crime runs rampant, and people often have to resort to extreme measures in order to survive. District 1 is also known as the Slums, or even the Forgotten District- as many people tend to forget it even exists, as well as the ‘City Officials’ seem to forget that there are people up there.
Housing in the Slums is not common, though some very tiny houses litter the edge of the wall separating the First and the Second District.
