The New Newvillean economy, worth 19.3 trillion SpacePesos a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 55,671 SpacePesos, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Fur coats have become the latest fashion trend, visiting dignitaries often end up cuddling in the hot tub with Leader, parents who fail mandatory parenting classes risk having their children taken away, and schools have extensive counseling programs for troubled students.

New Newville is ranked 20,970th in the world and 534th in The East Pacific for Safest, scoring 113.37 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
