Favorite BAT creator

[Tubthumper 499]

Hello all!

I recently downloaded a crap ton of @mattb325's custom RC growable lots, and want to see about getting more.  Anyone have a favorite creator I can check out?  So you know what I like - I don't really worry too much about building ginormous cities (I live in a small city in the Northeast of Indiana and I think Indianapolis is a huge city...been to NYC once didn't care for it) so I don't need necessarily massive amounts of huge skyscrapers.  I very rarely have than many dense R and C zones - usually work with light & medium density R/C

I don't care for the eurocontemporary style, and rarely have it checked.

I like trying to build manufacturing focused cities (i.e. the rust belt US cities), so building sets that model those areas I like a lot (doesn't mean just a bunch of square boring concrete block buildings.  A lot of cities in the midwest have some nice looking buildings) 

I like to find an author and go through their files and just hit download on each lot I like, vs hunting and pecking through individual lots.  But if there is a lot you particularly like - I would be happy to check it out.

Any author who specializes or has a lot of unique low wealth residential lots would be sweet.  I am tired of seeing the same row houses over and over in my low wealth regions (I use the no kickout mod...my mayors have enacted anti-gentifrication ordinances, we need the low wealth to have a healthy city, and the high wealth are more likely to be less likely to complain about a commute time than low wealth is.  I am not trying to expand a bus line out to the far reaches of suburbia to get my low wealth workers into the center!).  

TIA

jmyers2043 over on SC4Devotion has a number of residential Craftsman style houses, which help vary and dilute the standard Maxis pool.
In fact, anything by jmyers2043 is good, download his whole catalog.
I love the stuff that @dk1 did here; it's been ages since he's uploaded anything, but what he shared was great.

I can vouch for those residential lots by jmyers, they give R$ houses some dignity they badly needed, and are very copacetic with the in game style.

Even tho he already commented on this thread, I'm going to add that @madhatter106 has lots of great buildings for a small town or low income area. His stuff fits in so well, I often forget its not included with the game. Also @kevdan25 @RRetail @Simmer2and @SimGoober have good bats.

Nice, just downloaded a bunch of @madhatter106's files - working on CRM-ing them up for use in my game.  I also had a bunch of @RRetail's lots definitely some top notch files.  I have a few SM2 and SG files, need to check out kevdan

-Edit-
Haha, I was just having a discussion with a friend the other day about how it is weird that there are so many mattress stores in the poor parts of towns, then @madhatter106's low Wealth Commercial Services Vol 1 has a building called "Mattress Mart" - perfect!

@spa makes up the bulk of my low density commercial but he also has some residential packs. He has a lot of stuff on Simtropolis but I would go to SC4Devotion.

While much of our content would be too big for you cities, me and @nofunk have made a lot that would suit your cities. @SimHoTToDDy has made a lot of great industrial buildings.

@IDS2 @Jasoncw @kellydale2003 @mattb325 For me they are among the best active content creators. The night lighting they do is unmatched, they even model the interior of the offices. I hope one day to reach that level.

I also want to make a special mention to @Simmer2 and @Girafe, they are my reference in many of the things I want to do (Paths, RipRaps, Fences, Refinery, Trees, Cars, etc).
