downtowners
Central district residents
Downtowners are people who live or work in a city's downtown area, or who frequent it regularly.
The term often carries connotations of urban lifestyle—walkability, nightlife, cultural amenities: The downtowners packed the new wine bar on opening night.
It can distinguish city-center residents from suburbanites or those in outlying neighborhoods.
