Are there any shops in hostile zones?

In FTL: Faster Than Light, each sector is labeled as either Civilian, [Species] Controlled, or Nebula. Each of these sectors has a corresponding color that determines whether or not they are Friendly, Hostile, or a Nebula.

I've found shops in Friendly sectors, I've found shops in Nebulas. I can't recall ever seeing a shop in a Hostile sector. I'm desperately low on fuel, and in dire need of a shop. The problem I'm facing is that I'm stuck going through three hostile sectors in a row.

Can I find a shop in a Hostile sector?

Yes. Each sector generates with a different possible number of stores, like so:

• Civilian sectors (Civilian/Engi/Zoltan) each have 2-3 stores.
• Hostile sectors (Pirate/Rock/Rebel/Mantis) each have 1-2 stores.
• Nebula sectors (Slug/Uncharted) each have 1-2 stores.
• The Last Stand has one store and you probably won't have time to find it.

Yes absolutely. There are stores in hostile zones. I find them all the time, and the next time I do, I'll screenshot it.

In addition, there are also stores in the final sector.
