The following government offices are located in this district:
- the Parliament House
- the earth station

Yaren (and sometimes Aiwo) is usually listed as the capital of Nauru though this is incorrect; the republic does not have cities or an official capital. Yaren is accepted by the UN as the "main district". It returns 2 members to the Nauruan Parliament.
