"This table was Taboon hardwood! Do you know how hard it is to get that in the Middle City?"
―A Besalisk businessman[src]

The Middle City was a level of the Tarisian world-city, between the Upper City and the Lower City. Many small business owners lived here, and most average people came to the Middle City to conduct business. Swoops and air speeders traversed through the air-traffic ways that cut through the many avenues of the Middle City towers.

The Middle City was also the largest area, since a large portion of buildings were included in the jurisdiction of the "middle area". The most populous level of the planet, home to the lower and middle classes of the Human population.

In 3,964 BBY, following Zayne Carrick's second escape from the Jedi Tower, the Middle City was wracked by large-scale rioting. During the Siege of Taris, the Middle City was heavily bombarded by Mandalorian Kandosii-type dreadnaughts.

Although not entirely devoid of crime, the Middle City was more notably peaceful than other levels of Taris, though not to the extent of the Upper City.

The Sith probably had patrols in the Middle City during their occupation, as well as the Exchange. It is likely that most of the Middle City citizens perished in Taris's destruction.

By 3 ABY the Middle City had been rebuilt by Human colonists, but never again had it become a place where only the middle and lower class Humans were allowed to live.
