Hello all,

I have build acouple of large-scale cities. I am having a problem I have never experienced with education before... The right-side (eastern part) of my residential zones keeps getting really red education. I have tried de-zoning those areas, but then the red moves to the eastern part of some other zone. My city outline has the inductrial stuff on the east, and commercial to the south. There is a large gap between all 3 sectors. I have the whole area covered with Elementary, high school, library, colleges, all that stuff... Any ideas?? thanks in advance!!

BTW heres a screenshot

1. What's the health like? I think low health adversely affects education.

2. You could also try adding parks, see if that helps. Land value may affect education as well.

Aside from that, I don't know.


To search for the ideal city today is useless. For all cities are different. Each one has its own spirit, its own problems, and its own pattern of life. As long as the city lives, these aspects continue to change. Thus to look for the ideal city is not only a waste of time but may be seriously detrimental. In fact, the concept is obsolete; there is no such thing.

    I found the problem... it was the "Opera House Bug"... the opera house is an educational building that only supports 100k-150k people, and funding cannot be increased. Therefore when the population increases beyond this ammount, the "grade" of the Opera House goes down, 4-stars,3-stars,2-stars, and eventually 1-star. This adversely effects the entire city. There is a fix, but i deleted the file. email me at fgelderl@mail.usf.edu and ill help you find it, if needed.
