Mineral-rich lava can be made into fertile soil, motivating the plentiful plant bonuses away from the equator. To the south it borders on the Great Escarpment along the edge of the southern highlands The thin crust closer to the North Pole could e a suitable spot for geothermal energy plants.

TERRA CIMMERIA
 Terra Cimmeria is a densely cratered highland region on Mars' southern hemisphere, half way to the south pole, east of the Hellas basin.

The whole region shows signs of shorelines and water erosion from liquid water formerly flowing abundantly through the southern highlands.
