P4-CSDNorth

The North part of the Central Shopping District

The Central Shopping District (稲羽中央通り商店街, Inaba Chūōdōri Shōten Machi)? is a location in Persona 4. Located within the eastern part of Inaba, the shopping district is the heart of activity in the rural town. Many of the protagonist's activities take place or begin in this area.

The area is divided between two parts: the Shopping District North (北側, kitagawa) and South (南側, minagawa). It spans along a winding street which leads to a busy road at both ends. Way north of the district is the Yasoinaba Station. According to the locals, the district used to be bustling with life, with businesses thriving. Ever since the opening of the Junes Department Store, many shops are closing down.
