Similar to the development of most old era urban districts, the closer a location is to a transportation hub, the more prosperous it becomes, and the further away it is, the more desolate and quiet it becomes.
This is especially prominent in North Beta Town.
As the distribution center for goods and human traffic in the North District, the North District docks unquestionably serve as the largest transportation hub. Consequently, nearby the docks, a prosperous area that seems somewhat distorted in comparison to the entire Dent Area has formed.
But if one were to follow the main road of the docks into the deeper parts of North District, it wouldn't take long to burst through this prosperous area's "Emperor's new clothes" and get in touch with the reality of the Dent Area.
