Uglies are encouraged to call each other nicknames based on their personal imperfections (e.g.: Fatty, Skinny, Squint, or Zits), as well as to use software to generate preferences for their facial features. Uglies are then moved out of the suburbs and live in monitored dorms in Uglyville, where they attend middle and high school. When children turn 12 years old they are considered "Ugly", because of the burgeoning physical developments experienced by all preteens and teens. They become uglies during their preteen years. They live with their parents in the suburbs surrounding New Pretty Town, and they will attend elementary school until they turn twelve.
