High R$ and R$$ Demand, no Growth?

[dieMaus 0]

Hello all, first i have to thank all ppl here, reading all those famous postings here finally gave me some ideas how to play SC4

WEll, for my situation, i got RH, latest Patch, NAM. I started Fairview region, and played it with help from one Omnibus Tutorial. On the way various problems arised, but with the help of this forum most of them whre solved.

so, now i have around 175.000 ppl living in fairview, 1 big and 2 smaller suburbs, with only R$ and R$$ high educated sims (1x1 zoning is funny, no unwanted R$$$ ), 2 indusry citys, various small HT citys all around, and, finally, some more citylike districts, basically 4 grid.layout res citys with only little commerce, and one CO only city, just like the tutorial mentioned

no problems there, all maps are filled up with med dense, all services are provided andnot on full capacity, education is all high. my CBD is also build up, no empty zones.

so, the problem i got now is: all grid citys have extrem high R$ and R$$ demand (bar at top), and zero R$$$ demand. well, as soon as there is some small R$$$ demand, some buildings get rebuild to allow more R$$$ sims.

but, nothing happens to my R$ and R$$ ppl. i looked at the graph, i n all towns there is some stable R$ and R$$ population, but it wont increase. i tried to lay down hgh density zones, but still no effect. only when little R$$$ demand is coming (probably due some education ), the zones got rebuild.

why are no more R$ and R$$ sims moving in? my region is stagnation now of this, and idk how to solve it...

is there a similar way to prevent R$$$ sims with zone size, just i do in suburbs with 1x1? or is it another problem? first i thought i only got R$$$ in my citys, because there alot mansions and other high class buildings, but after looking at the graph, the majority of the city is still R$$. so idk why there are ot more coming, if the demand bar is on top...

anyone can gimme tipps?

i added one sreenshot, all other citymaps look basically the same..

edit: sry, the forum seems to ignore my newlines? edit2: oh html needed

Try upgrade medium density to high density or zone more.

Also, R$$$ won't grow unless you have provided their suitable jobs (CO$$$ or I-HT)

well, found out the problem. the tutorial i used didnt cover taxes and tax rates, so besides the 20% for unwanted industry and some lower taxes in CBD i had it 9% everywhere.

so basically, CO$$$ and CS$$$ was everywhere, thats why the demand for cs$ and c0$ was so high.

so, increased the taxes, destroyed the co$$$ and cs$$$ buildings, and now my region is crowing again , also my cbd is looking fantastic with all that incoming high wealth demand

next time i should tage a closer look on buildings first
