[edit] Economy
- See also: Rupee
Along with the rest of Termina, the main currency of Clock Town is the Rupee. It is used for all forms of trade, including payment for items and mini-games throughout the town. In West Clock Town, Clock Town Bank is run by a man known as the Banker to save Link's Rupees throughout time travelling. Rupees can commonly be found around town in abandoned jars, Treasure Chests, and behind shrubs. Clock Town appears to be purely commercial with negligible industrial activity. Consisting almost entirely of shops, restaurants, and inns, Clock Town assuredly earns much of its revenue through tourism during the annual Carnival of Time.
[edit] Government
Clock Town is governed by a Council and a Mayor. The current Mayor, a blue haired man by the name of Dotour, apparently has trouble making critical decisions. As the moon continues to draw closer to Clock Town, the council argues on whether the Carnival of Time should be continued and if the citizens should evacuate and take refuge or stay and hope for the best. Apart from the Mayor and the Council, the Clock Town government includes the postal service found in West Clock Town and the guards found around town who protect the city from dangerous outsiders.
[edit] Postal Service
Based in West Clock Town, the postal service picks up and delivers mail to red mail boxes around town. It is illegal to look into postbox without proof of being in the service (represented by wearing a Postman's Hat). The town's Postman is extremely dedicated and will deliver mail through rain or falling moons.
[edit] Points of interest
Clock Town is divided into five different areas: East, North, South, West and the Laundry Pool.
[edit] South Clock Town
South Clock Town is the city's main hub. It is connected to all three of the other sections of the city as well as Termina Field and the outlying regions. Every year, the Carnival of Time occurs in South Clock Town, making it a cultural center. The centerpiece of the town, Clock Tower, is found here, and is opened on the eve of the festival.
[edit] East Clock Town
East Clock Town, unofficially the "entertainment district", is home to the Stock Pot Inn, Clock Town's only hotel, as well as the exclusive Milk Bar. This area is also home to the majority of Clock Town's game shops, such as Honey & Darling's Shop, the Treasure Chest Shop, and the Clock Town Shooting Gallery. Also situated here is the Mayor's Residence. It is also the location of the place known as the Bombers' hideout.
[edit] North Clock Town
North Clock town consists of a large park which takes up the entire area, except for a small Fairy Shrine and a Deku Scrub's gaming establishment in a corner. Tingle the map-maker can be found here, along with Jim, the leader of the Bomber's Gang. Whilst wearing the Keaton Mask, one can unveil a real Keaton by cutting the grass in the northeast corner of the area.
[edit] West Clock Town
West Clock Town is the city's main commercial center. It includes an alley containing various stores, such as the Trading Post, the Bomb Shop, the Curiosity Shop, and the Clock Town Bank. In the northern area of West Clock Town, there is also the Post Office, and the Lottery Shop. Lastly, there is also the Swordsman's School, where swordsmen can hone their skills.
[edit] Laundry Pool
The Laundry Pool is apparently a place where people do their laundry. It also leads to a small house located directly behind the Curiosity Shop where Kafei hides. It also features a doorbell. Guru-Guru shows up at night during the first and second days, giving Link the Bremen Mask if he hears his confession.
