It sounds like there are six arms. Are they listed somewhere and i just missed it?

Some of them are named in the Gazetter of the first AP, Incident on Absalom Station.
Many traders coming to the station never bother to leave the Arms, and the residential areas that have sprung up to support these services are also the most likely to contain facilities or whole neighborhoods for creatures that find the station's humanocentric living conditions unpleasant.
Some named Arms:
Little Akiton, a bit crime-ridden wth unofficial docking fees.
Fogtown, an arm with an atmosphere suited for folks from the gas giants Bretheda and Liavara. Some great biotech is located here.
Puddles, a submerged area catering to water breathers. Best fish restaurants are here.
Vesk Quarter, the primarily Vesk neighborhood.
Kavalasa, an arm about which we know nothing, save that it contains Fardock. At the tip of Kavalasa's Arm, in otherwise prime docking space, stands a quiet enigma. Standing 20 feet tall, this stone archway twists like a Möbius strip and is always slightly out of focus, its surface occasionally manifesting alien runes that crest and disappear like surfacing dolphins.
I imagine they wanted to leave one unnamed so that GMs could fill it with their own neighborhoods and creatures.
I read that a bit differently: I thought those were neighbourhoods (from unspecified arms), other than Kavalasa.
I read them as neighborhoods somewhere in the station as well.
There will, I'm certain, be an Absalom Station setting book sooner rather than later but until then I'd have fun naming them something other than Arm 1, Arm 2...
