If you need to build a new hospital, the $120,000 cost is going to hit hard. Fortunately, you can play a bit of tug-o-war to keep people happy while still creating an income spike.īasically, your approval and happiness will be just fine if you raise taxes temporarily. Keeping them high, however, leads to unhappy citizens and a low approval rating. Of course, the quickest way to increase city income is to raise taxes.

Balancing the budget, which becomes more complex as you upgrade your city hall, is the best way to organize money coming in versus money going out. Tweaks to the budget and increases in commercial and industrial zones will increase income. As you expand, costlier items become available, but everything starts in a meager state. Don't expect to have tidal waves of money rolling in at the city's start. YOU WON'T BE A MILLIONAIRE RIGHT OFF THE BATĮvery city starts small that's just the way it is. Pay attention to the meters and build accordingly, and you'll keep your employment and income rates steady. If commercial demand starts rising, zone more commercial space. In other words, build twice the residential zones as you build commercial or industrial: the amount commercial and industrial zones combined should equal residential.Īs the city grows, keep an eye on these demand meters. When you being your city, start zoning in a 2:1 ratio that favors residential. These represent residential demand, commercial demand, and industrial demand respectively. The bottom right corner of the menu shows three bars: green, blue, and yellow. Make sure you place enough services to adequately cover your city, then begin upgrading them. The more sprawling your city, the more you'll need to place.Įach building has a limited response time: maxing out a firehouse in the northern part of town does no good if the trucks can't reach the southern part of town in time. Don't get caught up in maxing out every aspect of these buildings so soon. Hospitals can have more ambulances firehouses can have more trucks. Nearly every buildable object can tweaked. Do you have enough services in place to collect trash, fight fires, cure sick, and stop crime in each district? SPREAD IT BEFORE YOU EDIT

If you don't like web metaphors, think of it this way: divide your city up into districts (which you've probably already thought about anyway). Think of each building as a web - each one can only cover so much ground. For example, you'll need enough police stations to cover crime in all regions of the city. In SimCity, everything works like a giant game of rock-paper-scissors everything serves a purpose.Īs you progress, you'll require more than just one of each construct. Don't ignore schools, or your Sims will never get educated. Don't ignore firehouses, or buildings will burn.

I dont play it anymore, no time, plus I lost the serial code number :( Oh and remember to buy the Rush Hour Expansion pack if you do buy Sim City 4, you'll defanantly need it. You need a hella fast computer, Sim City will take up a huge amount of space, and it needs a fast computer for all those graphics. LOTS of determination, it takes time to make amazing cities! Sucks alotta time out of your life (like all games do, good thing i'm not into video games) I ALWAYS CHEAT, so its hard I heard if you dont cheat (my two cheats, super demand cheat: makes cities grow faster skyscrapers sooner, super money park: gives you like 4 billion dollars at startup) I could never survive playing the REAL game, then you have to deal with the whole Mayor Experience (taxes, funds, strikes, money) I'd rather get a huge load of money, and construct huge realalistic cities, mostly just to look at (sounds boring, but its fun).

Plus easy to get feedback if your having issues with the game. A HUGE fanbase, so much custom items like buildings/parks found on websites like Simtropolis. The music blends well with the game, good sound, very realalistic graphics. Impressive Graphics, very very good music. Zooming in, seeing the sims and cars move about, building new neighborhoods, watching what skyscraper will grow here and there. Its an amazing game! If you like Cities, you'll love this game.
