The Town of Parker was the main population centre of the Parker sector, and like it was named after the hero of the First Martian Revolution, Parker. It is a compact and well defined town in terms of its spread, and far more centrally focused than the neighbouring Town of Dust. During the Second Martian Revolution the area was a hotbed of Red Faction activity and the central focus of the Battle of Parker. The Red Rock Trading Post is the most known landmark here.
