The city's government is somewhat corrupt and incompetent as it is run by Mayor Tilton, who uses the city's funding for statues of himself and elaborate celebrations. The city's police force is large and resourceful but heavily idiotic when solving crimes or helping the citizens.

The Mask is the city’s premier superhero and its protector as well, since he keeps everyone safe and alive along with the fact that he also likes going to the Coco Bongo nightclub as well, which because of his wild and chaotic nature, considers it to be his favourite place to go to.
