I use MP as my administrative quarter including only community lots. Council House is there, the bank and a popular culture arena with rentable studios etc named Fun Factory. There's also a hotel providing restaurant and conference facilities (for story telling). The only remaining retail is the popular "Heisserclump Bakery", and of course "Jespers Jewelry Broker" where the nobility get their tiaras and other bling, but as a corner of the hotel, which is tagged restaurant, the jeweler is just for story telling, too.
So, no, not residential lots. But that doesn't stop me from having a household living in MP. Technically their house is in another world, I just pretend they reign the MP hood :) I really wish EA would open up a couple more lots in this tiny hood - I'd grab them in a second!
