The way I see it, are there traffic jams in your city especially near your commercial or industry? The reason for this is that every morning 5 to 6 am or 5 to 7 am (not to certain), trucks came from your factory to your commercial. If you have commercial concentrated in a certain area, without proper road access, this could result in late shipment and sometimes no shipment at all. Thus creating what I call backlog demand.

Care to elaborate?

That's true, only a 10% or less of unemployed workers will commute to the other cities in my experience. I'm yet still to master how to balance vs zoning in my Mining specialization that takes a lot of low wealth workers. The best way to do this in my opinion is too focus getting the proccessing plant fpralloy. After you get it, don't bother in mining coal and ore. The lot size forthose two are ridiculous. Simply import them. As for residence, one way to dothis is by placing your low wealth and perhaps medium wealth residence in clusters and provide multiple road connections to job site e.g. plants and mines. Transportation preferably not longer than 25-30 minutes with bus in and around your city.

The only way I find efficient in solving your problem is by setting up sister city that provide low wealth residential and dirty industry (as this helps with producing goods), and also basic services like sewage, power and garbage. For water I like to set each city independently unless I need the space. One thing to remember though, only a third or half of your low wealth population will commute to work in the region. This having experience it myself although good train, fery, or bus terminals. Don't know about you guys though. In the medium and highwealth cities I like to focus on tech and specialize in education and/or tourism (not much of a gambler ). Hope this help.

So I already in your region.. just wondering, where you all came from? Since I'm from S.E Asia I would like to manage my game time to yours and able to chat in game more frequently.

Friend Request Sent! see ya soon in game

If it goes for $9.99 then I'll pass.. spend much enough for the base game and until they give us larger city size then it doesn't worth that much because it will take up to much space, or at least in my mind and in my city it is..

Interesting. Do you max all the modules out on each school? Or just keep the main building module and keep building those instead? For school I Only upgrade It to full Capacity if it's located near high density residentials. For others I only plopped 1 or 2 additional class. I have 3 additional module for highschool, and 2 college module. I think that before patch 3.0 it is down to the placement of bus stop and school location, but i have yet to prove this my self.

I don't know what i did, but i plop around 3 elementary, 1 highschool, 1 college, and dozens of library, and all i get are 4.9 hats (more or less )

If ever there's a Simcity or any other city building game using that kind of graphics, I'll buy a new PC since I can hardly play SC5 without lag with my old one

Hi ridge, seems there's only you and me.. add my username, it's the same as my ST id

Have you plopped down a town hall in connected regions? The first time I play this game after update, I tried to create connected regions, and the people won't commute unless we have the neighboring mayor visit us first. I don't know whether it's intentional, cause for me it's not very logical.

As for the other problems I haven't seen any, maybe because I just created a new map, but the first thing I noticed is that when I leave the game alone, running in cheetah speed, sandbox mode, and a few money cheats. For the first 5 minutes it's fine, (A big hospital, Police Station with crime prevention and detective wing, Fire station with Hazmat truck and regular fire engine) but after I leaveit for the additional 10-15 minutes all hell broke loose, fire and deaths are everywhere and or some reason don't go away at all. After 30 minute of destructive gameplay I abandon my region.. some bug perhaps? I don't really know.
