The World of Second Life is made up of a large number of "parcels" of land. Most of these are united together to form 2 large land masses, or Mainlands. Residents may buy or rent parcels of land, allowing them to build, display, and store their virtual creations, as well as host events and businesses.

It is also possible to buy islands, separate from the Mainland, which offer greater control and security to the owners. The majority of companies and institutions setting up in SL tend to follow this route asthe increased security offsets the (usually) higher cost.

Virtual Real Estate companies like Anshe Chung (touted as the first US dollar millionaire created in Second Life) will supply land on both the mainland and separate islands, along with building services.
