Ensuring Adequate SERVICE COVERAGE in a GROWING CITY | Cities Skylines 2 | Montmaquis Ep. 16 🏔️
In this episode, we make sure that all the necessary city services are provided to our recently built industrial districts, as well as a brand new low density residential district long awaited by our wealthier residents. We also fix a couple of problems with the railway built in the last episode, and explore some updates to the Anarchy mod. We reach milestone 15 (Metropolis) and the population hits 80,000.
Montmaquis is a city inspired by the French Alps, built on the Mountain Village map in Cities Skylines 2.

    Thanks for watching! This channel is about playing games and learning about real-life social issues, politics, and history, so make sure to subscribe if you're into that. But if you think urban planning and municipal governance happen in a vacuum, or you're looking for simple escapism, you probably won't enjoy my videos. In any case, I hope you have a great day!
