* Geographic unit: **Census tract(人口普查區)**
* Generate residents and **stochastically** assign groups to a resident.
* 10 Groups and each of the groups has plenty subgroups
    1. community: 2000 persons each
    2. neighborhood: 4 household clusters each
    3. household cluster: 4 households each
    4. household: 7 persons each
    5. work group: 20 persons each
    6. high school: 155 persons each
    7. middle school: 128 persons each
    8. elementary school: 79 persons each
    9. daycare center: 14 persons each
    10. play group: 4 persons each
* Work group might have persons from different **Census tract**, since some people works in different place with where he lives (worker flow)
* Age only affects 
    1. Group assignment
    2. Contact probability [(contact matrix)](https://www.pnas.org/content/pnas/suppl/2006/03/24/0601266103.DC1/01266Table3.pdf)
