The Gamma Age marks a dramatic shift in ExoHuman settlement and housing, moving from private land ownership and free-market housing in the Beta Age to a centrally planned, communitized system under the control of the Federal Confederation. Following the Great War (2629–2631) and the signing of the Peace Treaty (2631), all private land ownership was abolished, and ExoHumans were restricted to living in four designated reservations:

• New Kourou (Administrative & economic center)
• Firetown (Mining hub on the Dark Side)
• Hope (Agricultural settlement)
• Morningstar (Logging district)

Outside these four settlements, ExoHumans cannot legally reside, except for a few sanctioned locations, such as:

• The Halfway Inn, a rest stop along the Extended Trade Route.
• The Mount Atrana Communication Outpost, a key relay station in a remote region.

Even within these settlements, movement between them is heavily restricted and requires work assignments authorized by the GAIA system.

Under Communardism, private land ownership was deemed incompatible with the principles of sustainability and collective welfare. The first postwar government, led by the Federal Confederation, nationalized all land and property.

• All housing is owned by the community and managed by the Federal Housing Agency (FHA).
• The housing market was eliminated—citizens can no longer buy, sell, or inherit property.
• GAIA assigns living spaces based on population density, available resources, and individual needs.

The FHA controls all aspects of housing distribution and urban planning. Every 12 months, GAIA calculates how many new housing units can be built based on available resources. The minimum living space per person—as of 2634, this is:

• 30 square meters per adult.
• 20 square meters per child.
• A family of four receives a minimum of 100 square meters.

Housing in the Gamma Age is designed for maximum resource efficiency, in compliance with Treaty energy restrictions.

• Apartment-style housing dominates, reducing land and energy use.
• Minimalistic interiors—furniture, appliances, and decor are standardized.
• Centralized heating and utilities to optimize energy consumption.
• Community kitchens & laundries—private appliances are restricted.
• Public living spaces encourage communal life over individual isolation.
