Suburban troubles

Hi,

I am having troubles with my suburban development

I like to have middle class residents covering most of my suburbs as this is the most realistic. So i decided to tax the mansions and the shacks really high to keep them out of my suburbs, but now my demand for middle class residential has gone into negative and my suburbs are either filled with shacks or mansions-does anyone have any suggestions?

thanks, Sqiddster

You can't have a middle class without an elite to lead them and wage donkeys to clean up after them. It makes more sense to have mostly shacks and mansions than it does to have mostly middle income housing. You could make the argument that the middle class will try to keep up with the Jones' and all build mansions that they can't afford. This will produce a real estate bubble which will burst and then everyone will be living in shacks when they should have been satisfied with something plain but sturdy. Better to let whatever grows stay as long as it is needed. Social engineering rarely works.

NinjanJoe: But the Super Demand Mod/Radical Ordiance Mod only controls commercial and industrial demand, not residential.
