Areas

Cities, areas and sub-areas (blocks, sectors, streets) used on subscribers, packages and lists, plus provinces. An area can stand alone without a city; Move under a city puts it in one. New area names typed on a subscriber are added here by themselves. This page is switched off by turning off the Area module under Modules.
