Cape County
The Cape County area is probably the most stable of the communities within Nueva Serena (NS from hereonout) with over 100k in residential population.

The area began as an industrial area and has increasingly commercial and residential over the past few decades thanks to oil and ore reserves in this area.



The two main cities are New Keyport and Victoria Beach, both with just over 50k in population apiece. The Pencil District is an old woodworking community that is rapidly becoming more residential but is currently unincorporated Cape County land. There has been talk of stadiums and resorts at different times which would truly transform the area even more, but NIMBYs have kept them out thus far.



Talk of an airport near the Interstate 18 area which currently is not populated would also spur growth for the whole region, but right now is just a blueprint and little else.

For a sense of geography, you can see the Palm Bay area from New Keyport. The regional crime rate has been falling, but it's a lot higher in the core Palm Bay areas versus here in the Cape. Traffic in the region is pretty bad, so it keeps traveling hard and while we do have mass transit, it's not evenly distributed so people just opt to drive. That's changing though.
