Heywood District

The Heywood District has been dubbed “the biggest bedroom in Night City”. That’s because most of Night City lives here. Heywood’s Sub-Districts include Wellsprings, The Glen, and Vista Del Rey.

Heywood is a district of contrast. In the north, near the City Center, you’ll find lush parks and modern skyscrapers towering high above. As you venture further south, however, the views change drastically, with dangerous and unwelcoming slums dominating the scenery more and more. Still, Heywood isn’t all bad, even with gangs like Valentinos and 6th Street roaming about — if you know your place and keep your head low, that is.

The richer parts of Heywood are primarily occupied by corpos. For every rule there’s always the exception — an odd soul from outside the corporate circle that on occasion manages to score an apartment here. The rest are just happy they get to live in Heywood, with their only realistic alternatives being Pacifica or the industrial wasteland outside of the city.

NCPD Threat Level

WARNING: The Night City Police Department’s current threat level for Heywood is: PARTIALLY HAZARDOUS. In the eastern and southern regions, gang activity has been noted. Most of this can be attributed to the Valentinos, a violent gang dealing in narcotics, vehicle theft and a variety of other criminal activities.

Wellsprings

Wellsprings is the safest part of Heywood, full of working stiffs and underpaid corporate employees — pretty much your run-of-the-mill American city.

The Glen

After Night City got taken over by corporations, the government moved to Glen. It’s now a state-owned subdistrict with a town hall, mayor’s office, court and for what it’s worth — a big NCPD station.

Vista Del Rey

And then there’s Vista Del Rey — the poorest part of Heywood. It’s heavily underinvested, ridden with crime, and slowly descending further into chaos, with residents moving out and gang members moving in.
