Society, orbiting the 1st Lunar-Earth-Lagrange Point, began as a joint venture between the L1 society and Permeable Ceiling and proved to be a resounding success.

Since it was PC’s first step outside of proximate Earth orbits, ferrying the needed materials to the colony was an expensive endeavour. The experiences gained over the course of the previous colonies did more than make up for it.
With the emphasis on the agricultural installations the L1 society insisted on the economic basis was very solid.

Even accounting for plateauing of current income, the governmental grant would be paid back in full in five decades. Given the expected technological and societal progression, it stands to reason it will take less than that.
As in previous colonies, the duplex lakefronts turned out to be breeding grounds for the less legally inclined, but police presence is seldomly requested.

Of note is the high demand for workers, both agricultural and industrial, that cannot be met by the local population. As is the job market outstrips the number of residents by a factor of two.
Despite the agricultural foundation of “Society", the colony manager decided to stay in the repurposed top floor of the office building, overlooking the commercial district.
