These changes make decisions around density, zoning, and infrastructure more meaningful and more akin to the real-world tradeoffs. Raising land value, now increases your tax income. Tax income is now affected by land values. Production of goods, water and electricity consumption, garbage accumulation, and building income have all been tweaked accordingly. This requires a more realistic level of investment in your education infrastructure. Office jobs are more heavily focussed towards your college graduates, and commercial and industrial jobs will require a higher ratio of high-school leavers than in the base game.

Office buildings and other employers support significantly more workers than the very low base game numbers, resulting in a much more realistic ratio of residential to commercial, industrial, and office buildings, and enables the natural evolution of more realistic downtowns and suburbs.Įmployment education level requirements are also changed to more accurately reflect real-world requirements and to help address some of the base game's shortcomings in this area.

Detached suburban housing will typically only support one family, while high-density residential buildings will have a number of households calculated based on the size of the building.
