District 7

"This beautiful district is lush with trees, from which these citizens supply our lumber and paper. The people of District 7 are hardworking and down-to-earth."

Everyday life
Nothing is mentioned about the lives of the citizens of District 7. However, Katniss notes that Johanna Mason, being from District 7 which produced lumber, probably threw axes since she was a toddler. This suggests that most citizens from District 7 began working with axes, probably in the forests that surround the area, from an early age. Katniss also mentions that Joahnna's nails are dirty and wonder is the peolpe from 7 ever take baths, This means this district is poorer.
