In the American animated television series Codename: Kids Next Door, Sector V is a fictional sector of fictional organization named Kids Next Door. The five main protagonists in the series work in this sector.
Like most KND sectors, Sector V's headquarters is a huge treehouse, located in Cleveland in the United States.
Members Main operatives * Numbuh One (Nigel Uno) is the English leader of Sector V with his excessively paranoid personality. Being a dedicated workaholic, he is bent on his job.Lizzie affectionately calls him Niegie and hardly ever calls him Nigel. * Numbuh Two (Hoagie Pennywhistle Gilligan, Jr.) is the Jewish technology officer of Sector V. He often cracks bad puns and loves chili dogs, along with various food. * Numbuh Three (Kuki Sanban) is the Japanese expert on "diversionary tactics" and nurse of Sector V. She possesses a stereotypical "girly" attitude, obsessed with Rainbow Monkeys (spoof of Care Bears). She is almost always happy. * Numbuh Four (Wallabee "Wally" Beetles) is the not-so-smart Australian combat expert of Sector V. He has a crush on Numbuh 3 although is reluctant to admit it. * Numbuh Five (Abigail "Abby" Lincoln) is the South African second-in-command and spy of Sector V. She is arguably the most intelligent of the group and the oldest as well.
In addition to main operatives, Bradley the skunk became honorary operative and received Numbuh 6 in the episode "Operation: C.A.M.P.". Bradley is a skunk found by Sector V. Numbuh 1 made him an honorary operative (giving him a medal) of Sector V, despite that he isn't a human being. He is also technically the youngest member of the Kids Next Door
Former operatives The KND operatives formerly worked in Sector V including: * Thomas "Tommy" Gilligan (as Numbuh T) as in the episode "Operation: G.R.A.D.U.A.T.E.S." * Cree Lincoln (as Numbuh 11) as in the episode "Operation: T.R.E.A.T.Y." and "Operation: M.A.U.R.I.C.E." * Numbuh 8A and Numbuh 8B: Twin operatives appeared in the episode "Operation: M.A.U.R.I.C.E.". They were "poxed" (given chickenpox) and in "Operation: T.R.E.A.T.Y." watch Numbuh 1 before he graduates into the KND. * Numbuh 9 (Maurice) appeared as the title character in Operation: M.A.U.R.I.C.E. According to Numbuh 5, he was one of the greatest of the KND operatives. Three years ago, Numbuh 9 swore he would find the teenage source of chickenpox and destroy it (his fellow teammates Numbuhs 8A and 8B were "poxed"). He later discovered the source was on a desolate island, Chickenpox Island. However, he turned thirteen and was decommissioned before he could complete his mission. Not wanting to lose their friend, Sector V defied orders and went to protect Maurice from the teenagers. Unfortunately, Maurice was kidnapped before Sector V could save him. Numbuh 5 (who got infected with the chickenpox by her sister, Cree) went on a solo covert operation to rescue Maurice, where it was revealed that Cree had designed a "chickenpox cannon" (a gargantuan artillery cannon that fires chickens as shells) to infect all kids. In the end, it turned out that Maurice was a mole all along, working for KND to finally complete his mission against chickenpox. He secretly helped Numbuh 5 defeat Cree, turn the chickenpox cannon against the teenagers and destroy Chickenpox Island. He revealed to Numbuh 5 that some KND operatives get to stay in the KND organization after they turn 13 - they act as super-secret covert agents that infiltrate Teenager and Adult Facilities and gather anti-kid information the adults and teens might be plotting to KND Global Command. It is presumed that both Numbuh 5 and Cree have a crush on him. Salsa is one of his favorite foods. He was Cree's prom date in Operation: V.I.R.U.S. Appears in Operation: P.A.R.T.Y. Voiced by Khary Payton. He is based on Maurice "Mo" Willems, who left the show.

Trivia
*The "V" is probably represents the Roman Numeral for number 5 considering they're 5 operatives in that sector, although they also have Numbuh 6. *Judging from the fact that Sector V is in the US, and most sectors in that country refer to states, it's possible that Sector V is Virginia. *Each of the KND Characters of Sector V have obscured eyes: Numbuh 1's sunglasses, Numbuh 2's goggles, Numbuh 3's eyes are squinty (but only because she's constantly happy), Numbuh 4's hair and Numbuh 5's cap. Numbuh 6 apparently had one eye outright replaced when he was converted. *According to Mo Willems, the ages from oldest to youngest are: Numbuhs 5, 4, 2, 1 & 3. This is confirmed by Mr. Warburton excluding Numbuhs 2 and 4.
