Scope note
Regions, districts, localities, or other divisions of a town or city. Whereas the term technically refers to areas resulting from division of a larger area into four parts, quarters are instead typically defined by habitation by a certain group or community, or by having a particular character or use, regardless of the total number of such parts.
