Starting a Region

[samoyed1958 0]

I hope I have placed this question in the right area. if not sorry. My problem is this..

I started a nice region, lot of hills and wanted to lay out the roads and rail first. I spent couple of hours getting everything just right. then went about laying down some residencal area's and such, but when I go into the mayors rating, it never goes out of the red no matter what I do. Now I  stopped the time while I was building the roads and such but I'm wondering why my mayor rating stays in the red?

wait a minute, you are worry about the mayor rating goes to red or your city budget? if it is your mayor rating, they just act as a referece for you and it will have no harm done. if it is you budget that goes to red, then you need to spent some time to read through articles thorough out the entire Simtropolis. you could find a couples of them in the OMNIBUS, or you could do a search in forum on how to build a profitable city.

hope it give directions to you.

You can always do some UDI missions that reward + mayor rating.

Your mayor rating is red most likely becuase you have to many roads and rail for the people to use. they coudl be upset that there taxes are spent up keeping roads that they do not use... do not really need to worry about mayor rating. It will bet better. adn as the above suggest you could try some missions... that help your mayor rating...
