Katakashi District (Residential)

The Residential District, known as Katakashi, houses over 2.8 million of the cities residents. Even though it has such a large population, it is such a sprawling area that it barely feels crowded. It is also home to hundreds of skyscrapers, although these are mostly for people to live in. As with other parts of Narau, the city is constantly expanding and moving upwards. Literally. In fact, some of the worlds highest sky-scrapers are located here. To make the people of Narau as happy as possible, the city planners included many parks for the people to rest and relax in.

The quality of life in the Residential District is very good. There is power, running water, and all the basics. It doesn't stop there, however. The city offers many modern services.
