Big Spending

The medical school still didn't have enough professors to open a proper Phd program 2 years after opening.  A town meeting was called about the problem.  After much debate, it was decided to allow a Windmill of Knowledge to be built.  It's not accredited with any higher education agency, but it does churn out Phds without requiring any prefessors.  It's not really a windmill, it's more of a diploma mill.

Ok, so I went into the building editor and made a cheap solution to my lack of doctorate degrees.  Next time I'll make a better building maybe, and take some pictures of the process.

Cityville is finally starting to achieve some density.

Just as we thought the lack of doctorate degrees was behind us, a Corporate Headquarters was built, sucking even more educated workers out of the education system.

Here's the prosperity heatmap.  This town is going to need a lot of public pools...

Lakeland is growing.  There is much demand for farms, and there is plenty of land on the opposite side of the lake, but the government lacks funds to extend the highways.

A community college was founded between the highway loop and Clipper Lake.

Even though there was empty land right near the downtown rail station, county planners insisted on bulldozing some old office buildings for the new courthouse.

The winter of '68 was a snowy one.

A hospital was built this winter too.  Looks like we may be seeing another tax hike in the near future.

The original elevated rail line passing through one of Cityville's first neighborhoods.  An historic district was recently created for the neighborhood.

Yep.  Property tax went up.

Timber Bay has grown steadily, but still maintains rural and wild land not far from the town center.

Some new apartments were built in Cityville.  There is one pool for adults, and one for kids.

Another forest gives way to demand for more houses.
