With the extra attention Jazz Hands players pay to The Tower, several have noticed over the years that The Tower’s materials are aged and weathered in ways that indicate that the structure has experienced many more collapses than the team itself has experienced. Concerns about The Tower’s age are often brushed off as there was no known record of residents being aware of it prior to its emergence after . Long-time Jazz Hands often half-joke to new players about The Tower having loomed over Breckenridge long before anyone became aware of it, though new players tend to see these remarks as their new teammates trying to unsettle them.
===The Pocket===
Formerly the Breckenridge Community Theatre, The Pocket has since been expanded into a stadium and entertainment complex that houses the Breckenridge Jazz Hands. When not in use as a stadium, The Pocket continues to put on plays and musical performances, as well as acting as a community events center.
===The Pit===
The Pit is a seemingly endless pit in the ground under The Pocket. Breckenridge was built around the Pit, and parts of its public transportation system intertwine with the Pit. The Pit is the primary location for all underground facilities belonging to The Pocket, and is also where the Jazz Hands' Shadows reside and work. Some of the entities that originate from it, such as pit cats, are beloved by the Breckenridge community. 
===Jazz Hands Memorial Garden===
The Jazz Hands Memorial Garden is a local statue garden in Breckenridge that commemorates deceased Jazz Hands players. When a player is Incinerated, a statue either of the player or of an interest of theirs is created and displayed in the memorial garden. The garden is regularly visited by Blaseball players and community members alike. 
===Breckenridge Municipal Airport===
A small municipal airport. Serves smaller local planes as well as smaller aircraft belonging to commuter airlines with charter services. The Breckenridge Municipal Airport is also where the Quandary, the airship belonging to Jazz Hands player Elijah Valenzuela, is stored.
===Breckenridge University===
The local university, Breckenridge University is known for offering a degree in nearly any subject. It is also known for having no tuition, with all programs free to pursue. Breckenridge University also gives out scholarships, which consist of congratulatory certificates due to lacking tuition fees. 
===9/25===
A local gas station and convenience store, always around the corner. Carries a relatively standard offering of products, including car parts and light bulbs. The 9/25 is smaller than it looks on the inside. The section of the store with the freezers is always cold. Jazz Hands players Riley Firewall, Edric Tosser, and Steph Weeks are regulars at the store and frequently spend evenings smashing fluorescent light bulbs in the parking lot behind it.
The 9/25 has several employees:
* Revan Smellhound, Manager and Dog
* Andi Steeping
* Gabriel Areiado
* Ana Manx
* Nyx Kerensky
Manager Smellhound reportedly has a rivalry with Jazz Hands pit cat and recording manager, Charms. As a result, 9/25 ads do not play on The Pocket Radio, and the station does not play inside 9/25 stores, at least when Smellhound is around. 
===Cashmoney's Yacht Depot===
Located in the mountains near Breckenridge is a yacht depot owned by Aldon Cashmoney. Known for owning one of every boat, Cashmoney created the yacht depot to store many of vis custom yachts as there are currently no waterways in the landlocked city of Breckenridge able to support some of the larger yachts. 
===Dlairy Queen===
A fast food restaurant in Breckenridge. A normal Dlairy Queen, except for the fact that it restricts how often Jazz Hands players can enter the premises. This rule came into effect after Jazz Hands player Lancelot Kane once ordered the entire Dlairy Queen Bizzard menu at the same time and then proceeded to attempt to do so several times on later visits. Recognizing Jazz Hands players both in and out of uniform is part of the new employee training at this Dlairy Queen location.
