By default, urbanness is a &quot;stuff-like&quot; property of human residence areas: (nearly) every subregion of an <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjK7JwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">UrbanArea</a> is itself an <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjK7JwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">UrbanArea</a>. Examples include <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVi_j5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">UTAustinCampus</a>, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwQwql5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">ResearchTrianglePark</a>, and the territorial extent of various cities (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVi5OZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">CityOfAustinTX</a>, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVj5T5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">CityOfToulouseFrance</a>, etc.). urban area UrbanArea human residence HumanResidenceArea A specialization of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvViACZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">GeographicalRegion</a>. Each instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjKq5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">HumanResidenceArea</a> is a region in which a number of people live semi-permanently (that is, for a duration of at least a year or more). Examples include <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwQr_A5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">SanFranciscoBayArea</a>, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwQwql5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">ResearchTrianglePark</a>, research stations at the <font color="#ff0000">#$SouthPole</font>, and radar posts in the Aleutians. facets - strict facets-Strict A <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVkGXJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">TaxonomicSlotForCollections</a> and a specialization of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rRA9CIljCEdiRSAACs2IMlQ" class="cyc_term">facets_NearStrict</a> (q.v.). (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvcZ1FpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">facets_Strict</a> COL COLTYPE) means that COLTYPE corresponds to one way of dividing COL up into disjoint subcollections. Specifically, the instances of COLTYPE are all the same sort of subcollection of COL and are, moreover, all disjoint with (see <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvViA45wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">disjointWith</a>) each other. For example, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rGwcsMFkIQdiMCLmJUEZ9IQ" class="cyc_term">DogTypeByBreed</a> strictly facets <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjaoJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Dog</a>, because the breeds of dog constitute mutually disjoint subcollections of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjaoJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Dog</a>. Other possible ways of strictly faceting <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjaoJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Dog</a> are by sex, by size, and by whether or not they are domesticated. Note that (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvcZ1FpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">facets_Strict</a> COL COLTYPE) does _not_ imply (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjVYJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">covering</a> COL COLTYPE), since the instances of COLTYPE might not cover all of COL. For example, some dogs belong to no breed.

Pretty String (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwLSVCpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">prettyString</a> TERM STRING) means that STRING is the English word or expression (sequence of words) commonly used to refer to TERM. The predicate <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwLSVCpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">prettyString</a> is used by the code which generates CycL to English paraphrases, but its applicability is not restricted to this use. prettyString artifactual feature type <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4ru-8ymLHtEdmAAAACs6hO_g" class="cyc_term">ArtifactualFeatureType</a> is the collection of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4r6-wc8BKxEdeIXwCgydofLQ" class="cyc_term">CartographicFeatureType</a>s which are <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVkH_ZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Artifact</a>s, as opposed to naturally occuring.

Each instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVny6pwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">ExistingStuffType</a> is a collection of things (including portions of things) which are both temporally and spatially stufflike.

It's also spatially stufflike: if we take that piece of wood W-168 and cut it in half, we have two things which are both pieces of wood.
