District by number:
1. Science District
- This district is home to the majority of the science labs and other major research company facilities. There are two major companies found here. Soto Biosystems Technologies which specialize in medical technologies, as well as genetic research have an extensive lab on the edge of the city, and Cosmos Research Inc, who focus on aeronautical research and are almost always working on the newest ways to get humans into outer space. Also contained in this district is the solar power plant and the wind power plants. Both of which power the majority of the city thanks to the scientific advancements made by other smaller corporations in the district.
2. Starlight Heights
- Situated on the northern part of the city this is where the fabulously wealthy have their homes. The houses are very large, very ostentatious and very exclusive. Usually belonging to the heads of the Science District corporations or come from old money. Things here are usually quiet and boring unless you're invited into one of the many fabulous homes. Part of the area also borders with Lake Oconomowoc, the smaller of the two lakes, this one being man-made. The lake-shore is home to the Starlight Greens, the city's prestigious golf course.
3. Lake Shore Heights
- This is the home to the majority of the suburban non-rich residences. People here are those accustomed to the high standard of living without being downtown in apartments. This is where people come to settle down and start a family. This district hosts many parks and open green spaces which serve as picnic destinations as well as many people enjoying a nice stroll along the north-eastern section of Lake Oconomowoc.
4. Platinum Beach North
- The original Platinum Beach as a city was just along the barrier island on the eastern edge of the map but as the city grew the original city was divided into a northern district and a southern district. The northern district is the newer section of the city. There are many islands between it and the mainland all of which tend to cater to the tourists. Many hotels and fancy shopping centers can be found here as of course, the ever popular beach. Platinum Designs, a famous design firm also calls Platinum Beach North homes with it's headquarters in a high rise just looking over the beach near the border of Platinum Beach North and Platinum Beach South.
5. Silver District
- If Platinum Beach North is the home for tourism, the Silver District is the home of the nightlife. The hottest clubs, bars and restaurants can be found here. There is a wide variety of options for the gourmet at heart, but the specialty is Cuban and Haitian dishes. Club 29 is the number one club in the city and resides in this district, catering to a very exclusive demographic. The only way in is to know somebody on the inside. The southern part of this district is the beginnings of the skyscrapers.
6. Aeronautical District
- This is usually the first district people see when flying into Platinum Beach. It is home to Platinum International Airport (which, despite its name also serves as a national airport operating out of two separate hubs yet sharing the runways.) This is also where Cosmos Research has set up their hangers and factories for building purposes. There is a large warehouse district also contained on the western edge of this district, mostly used by the corporations of the Science District.
7. Downtown
- The Downtown area is a mixture of different things, though still predominately a housing area. The skyscapers here are mostly apartments, but there are all sorts of things found here, from grocery stores, to yoga studios, to smaller businesses. This is the general urban area. It also shares a border with Lake Seminole, a natural lake which is mostly just overflow from the marshlands nearby. It's a source of fresh water but it's mostly skipped over in favor of the ocean.
8. Marshlands
- The Marshlands extend deep into the city and are a preserve of sorts. Most people avoid them but it there is also a center for ecological studies housed along the outskirts of the marshlands, just inside the city. Many creatures call this area home, and more intrepid tourists (and a few locals) like to take swampboat rides out to see if they can spot any alligators.
9. Glass District
- The Glass District gets it's name from the distinctive glass skyscrapers in this area. If the Science district has half of the wealthier populous of the city, this is where the other half come from. Design studios, high end banks, if it has a CEO and is based here, this is the district that you will find it. At around 9pm this district tends to get a bit more quiet as most of the businesses are closed for the day.
10. Platinum Beach South
- This is the true heart of Platinum Beach, the original city was formed right here. There is a historic block that has a few preserved buildings from the original Spanish occupants which operates as one large museum but the rest of the district is a testament to the technological advancements by having shining skyscrapers and fantastic rooftop-gardens.
11. Point Park
- The majority of this part of Platinum Beach is a natural park. Open to the public, the large peninsula is completely closed off to regular traffic. Many people like coming here and enjoying the beach, the parks and the nature preserve.
12. Little Cuba
- Due to the proximity to Cuba many of the immigrants from that country have set up in their own district of the city. There is a mixture of residential areas and small mom-and-pop businesses and restaurants. Coming here is almost like being in an entirely different country at times. The main attraction here is Mama Cubana's Restaurante.
13. Rocket District
- This district is really more of a section of the marshlands drained and repurposed for a launching facility for space exploration. Though the majority of this area is devoted to the space programs, some of it is a mixture of residential and storage areas. Some have said that the warehouses in this district belong to small time crime syndicates trying to get their hands on some of the technology of the shuttles to sell on the black market.
14. Chinatown
- In recent years the number of Chinese immigrants to Platinum Beach has skyrocketed so much so that they've adapted a section of the southern part of the city into their own little haven. Like Little Cuba this area mostly serves as a mixture of businesses and restaurants but also bring a bit of eastern mysticism along with it. It isn't uncommon to see fortune tellers and Taoist priests handing out charms and other things to bring in luck. The Golden Dragon is a library slash occult shop that has been very popular with the locals.
15. Lowtown Docks
- This area is home to the docks as well as the warehouses for fishing ships. The northern part of this district is also where many people come to get on the numerous cruise lines that call Platinum Beach their home. Beyond boarding the cruise ships, or working on the docks as a fisherman there isn't much to do here.
16. Platinum Beach Bay
- The easiest sea entry to the city is through the bay. It's commonly used for the upper class people to go out into the Atlantic Ocean on their personal yachts, the cruise ships to head to their destinations and the fishing ships to go to work.
