East Harlem

East Harlem is located in the same area as the real-world neighborhood of the same name

Background
East Harlem has a high hispanic population, and many of the citizens are still Latinx, even 200 years later. There are also remnants of pre-war religion active in the area’s many churches. Regardless, East Harlem is surprisingly a technological powerhouse. While they might not have advanced AI or robotics at levels like the Institute, they have extensive computer networks, and there are many Mr. Handy and Ms. Nanny robots still in use.

Many people are well versed both in computer science, as well as mechanics. Repairs are frequent, and people come great distances to have their weapons, robots, or other electronics repaired. They even have begun to repair a large water purifier connected to the East River. Such an accomplishment would greatly increase East Harlem’s influence in the area.

Unfortunately, East Harlem is currently going through a food shortage, straining the population, which is still rising. The area’s average age is also much lower, due to a high birth rate, which worsens the food shortage as the younger members eat more than their elders while they continue to grow.

Inter-City Relations
East Harlem and Harlem share a ‘checkpoint’ at Duke Ellington Circle, Marcus Garvey Park, and 125th Street Station. Citizens of the NCSC may freely pass at these checkpoints, but non-citizens will be subject to search or even be denied entry.
