  1. Max out job occupancy

    Right! Let me try a post once. I have been studying some posts on job occupancy. Especially the posts of Bones1, Peorth and Keiran Halcyon are very interesting. I have been trying to understand what type of R to stimulate in a certain area. I usually have a mixed city, with R close to C and sometimes I to especially increase my number of residents. I learn from the query tool on C & I buidlings that they are not fulfilling their max jobs. I was interested in what king of R I have to stimulate in the area to boost the number of jobs in the C or I building and let it fulfill its max number of jobs. What I have read from the posts is that they need a mixture of R$, R$$ and R$$$, acoording to this table: ____\_Jobs Provided Jobs_\R$___R$$__R$$$ CS$___100%_0%___0% CS$$__68%__27%__5% CS$$$_62%__30%__8% CO$$__40%__50%__10% CO$$$_20%__65%__15% IA____100%_0%___0% ID____100%_0%___0% IM____50%__45%__5% IH____10%__80%__10% Thanks Bones1! However the query tool does nog provide you with details on how in say a C$$$ buidling this is distributed. If the query tool tells me that the jobs are 90/100, I do not know which type of R ($, $$, $$$?) I need to stimulate. I don't think the overall demand bars will tell me this, as I believe that is city-wide and I think demand is different in certain area's of your city. The north side of the city might need R$, will the south side need R$$$. I did follow this post: https://www.simtropolis.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=38&threadid=76585&highlight_key=y&keyword1=jobs%20provided Which basically learned me that education and wealth level walk hand in hand in whether de demand for jobs is fulfilled. Peorth argued that you can have a Phd taxi driver, but once a R$$ or R$$$, will not be a janitor (R$) anymore. So only education will not answer my problem, you will need the correct education but also the right wealth (R$, R$$ or R$$$). I know this is a bit trying to have a city of maximum efficiency and also RL does not work like that. But I think if several buildings in the area lack R$, you will not have much demand to grow in that area. So it will learn me that I will have to stimulate R$ in that area to stimulate overall growth. While in a different area in the same cityI will need to stimulate R$$$. I did do some experimenting with subway's. In an R$ area with a lot of no jobs icons a provided a subway connection to a area which I suspected to have a lack in R$ and it did work. The no jobs icons disapeared and the C or I building filled up to the maximum number of jobs. However, it was a guess. Also the traffic query tool can not accurately predict what type of R works in de C or I building. I would prefer to have the correct R nearby as my commuting times would be low. Any thoughts on this? Is there a mod? Can a Mod be constructed? Is it one of those uncertainties you will just have to manage? By the way, I have the Expanded UI mod, which is also very useful, but does not solve my problem. Thanks in advance!
