Theme: Raccoon City

''' -Welcome to Raccoon City. Population 721,483. Please enjoy your stay. - '''

As of the early 1960s Raccoon City was a small rural town at the edge of the Raccoon Forest until modernization began in the late 1960s following the opening of Umbrella Pharmaceuticals, which already had a military testing lab in the nearby mountains.

The Streets were electrified for a tram system by Michael Warren who would later become the town Mayor and not long after construction began on a subway system as the city continued to expand at a rapid pace; heavily influenced by the growing Umbrella Corporation.

Located in the mid-west United States, Racoon City has grown into one of the top ten cities to live in, in the United States of America and has a population that numbers in the millions. Raccoon City underwent further modernization and revitalization in the 1990s and early 2000s making it one of the most modern cities in the world as of 2005.

Unknown to many, nearly all of Raccoon Cities industries are controlled by the Umbrella Corporation and in addition to the above-ground facilities such as the local Chemical Plant and Pharmaceutical company there is also an underground facility that nobody yet knows of.
