Easthampton continues to be economically dominated by the mining and energy sector, with a [[Energy in Arcerion|planned nuclear reactor]] to be built by 2030. However, natural disasters such as low-magnitude earthquakes are not uncommon, leading to several engineering challenges to ensure the safe replacement of coal-fired power plants. Easthampton is also home to [[Structure of the Arcer Army#7 Rifle Brigade|several major military installations]] making it one of Arcerion's largest cities per-capita of servicemembers.

Easthampton is one of the few cities in Crona, and Arcerion, that has ever hosted the large international sporting event. It was highlighted by the Aileach Mountains providing the perfect environment for skiing and other winter events, leading to the city hosting both the 1984 and 2016 [[Istroyan Games|Istroyan Winter Games]]. Notably, the 1984 Istoryan Winter Games were the first occurrence of Winter Games being held in Crona, owing to Arcerion's modern infrastructure and a successful bid to bring the games to Arcerion and demonstrate its culture and heritage. The 2016 Istroyan Winter Games were originally intended for Akwesasne, [[Quetzenkel]] but were relocated due to the [[South Nysdra War]]. Due to the Cronan Nexus, the Istroyan Council requested that Arcerion host, and re-using many of the older facilities and quickly building new ones, Easthampton was able to plan and deliver one of the most popular Istroyan Winter games (by international viewership and attendance) in Ixnay's history.
