Kerrsville: Small-Sized Urbanism
Welcome back!

Schriefer, thank you for your comment. As this is my first journal, expect the updates to get a tad better as time progresses.
This is the city of Kerrsville, located just south of Colbertson. It was founded as a little settlement for agricultural workers, although no agriculture actually existed in the city until later into its history.
Kerrsville is located roughly inside the red outline, with Colbertson to the north and the town of Larkston to the east.
Kerrsville about 5 months after its founding. After some Sims found a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow-colored fireworks (There isn't any rainbows here in the SimVerse), the city has now been able to fund several projects, starting with a fancy-schmancy bridge.
The main residential sector of the city. The small area of commerce was supposed to be the "downtown" area, however, all commercial growth has been on the other side of the highway. The population stands at 826.
The city now 1 year further into the timeline. A smattering of high-wealth residences have made their way to the eastern sector of the city. Many of them still sit there, but no longer dominate the little skyline the few buildings have made.
Downtown Kerrsville after 6 months. Offices have now moved in, and cozy little Maxis houses have definitely added to the desirability. The roads that ran past have now been turned into one-way streets, the first attempt in the region to use them.
An aerial shot of the city, about 22 years after the first road was laid. A new residential subdivision has been added into the city, located in the northwest of the city proper. Notice how a few farms (Maxis also) have now made their mark on the landscape.
After 49 years, the downtown landscape has changed dramatically, and the city truly no longer is just farmer's quarters. This city now has its own vibe, nonetheless with a small-town feel to it. The population here is approx. 16,900.
Well, hope you liked this update. I will be showing the region's small towns in the next update. Be watching for it!
Until next time, vale!
