Keep your head down and work hard and you'll die with dignity in Kor Vella. At least that's what a lot of people choose to believe. Gangs run rampant in the under-levels of the city and the Imperial Garrison does nothing to stop them, since they get a cut of all the action. Sometimes they'll crack down on a gang but only if they have reason to believe they're being held out on. Most of the working folk of Kor Vella that aren't gangers or imps will die before reaching middle age.

The city of Kor Vella is a tiered mega city, with six sectors dividing the people based on their worth to the Empire.

• The upper city is comprised of the Adarin sector and the Wellthrop sector.
• Adarin is the home of the Imperial Garrison and the Imperial Academy on Kor Vella.
• Wellthrop is a district established for the wealthiest citizens of Kor Vella, including shops and services catering to them.
• Both sectors are gang free with heavy Imperial patrols, tho it is rumored that the Crimson Dawn, the Black Suns and the Hutts all have a "legitimate" presence there.

• There are three sectors that make up the core.
• Imperial presence is low, as Stormtroopers don't go to the lower levels unless in platoon formations, so they leave policing duties to CorSec.
• Savarr district is the home of the local CorSec academy and garrison.
• Ruan district is an entertainment district that has cantinas, brothels, bathouses, etc.
• The highest gang presence in the core sectors can be found in Ruan district.
• Maniv district is mostly housing and employment facilities.
• The destitute can report to workhouses in Maniv to find daily labor opportunities in The Pits.

• Officially "The Lower City", the locals refer to the subterranean levels of Kor Vella as The Pits.
• The Pits, despite being larger than the upper city and core sectors combined in area and population, have no defined districts or official presence.
• A combination of gas mines, ore mines and processing facilities (both waste and material refineries) make up the majority of The Pits.
• There is a thriving Black Market presence as well as a large number of gangs that run the worksites.
• Most workers toil within The Pits in order to earn relocation opportunities, as the laborers who consistently meet or exceed quotas are occasionally transferred to the orbital shipyards.
• Some of the "Pitfolk" are also selected from a lottery to serve as servants of the wealthy citizens of the Upper City.
• Workers in The Pit are paid in scrip, not Imperial credits, and the only shops that take their scrip are the commissary and reclamation shops in The Pit itself, ensuring they don't leave their "district" unless to work as servants for the wealthy.
