The oldest neighborhood of {city-name}, Toonerville was the downtown area hundreds of years ago when {city-name} was first founded.
After the first flooding, a new downtown district was created and Toonerville grew to become what it is today.

=== Lower Unit Blocks
Just called "the units" by most of the people in {city-name}, the lower units were first constructed at the turn of the 21st century.
Expanding the ground-level metro area was difficult to do, so in the years since the units have expanded massively, sprawling out underneath much of the metro area.
The units go as deep as 3000 feet below ground, especially around the entry zones from street level.
At these entry zones are winding 10-lane highways spiraling down.
Traditional automobiles occupy these highways while gravcraft have ample room to move in and out of the grid-like streets down in the units.
Down here is where {city-name}'s impoverished mostly resides.
Sure there's a lot of people struggling up top, but down here there's nothing but that.
Above are the people who can afford a ground-level living and lifestyle--called "uppers" by those down in the units.
In the units are people just scraping by, where even seeing sunlight in your house is considered a luxury.
Despite the units being where most of {city-name}'s impoverished lives, many people who live here go to ground-level to work.
At the entrances are where most of the commerce takes place in the units.
The further away you get typically is where more crime is prevalent.
There are many smaller entrances restricted only to police and privileged corporate security companies to make it easier for them to respond to crime in the units.
In even greater number are the secret, hidden entrances found throughout {city-name}.
Authorities don't know about a vast majority of these as they are too numerous to keep track of,
but they are incredibly well-kept secrets because of the value they provide to those who need to quickly move between the ground-level and the units.
