* '''Subverted''': Troperville had long been hostile towards LGBT people, but made a complete 180 in the span of two decades, so by the time a gayborhood could actually exist, there wasn't a huge demand for one. As a result, all but the roughest parts of town are gay-friendly.



* '''Subverted''': Yaoi Street doesn't have much in the way of nightlife, trendy boutiques, etc.
