    Tips to Fix High Rent.
    1) make the low residential plots smaller. (2x2 or 3x3)
    2) add welfare center
    3) make public transport cheaper / free
    4) make some more stone mining industries.
    5) lower the fees for electricity and water
    Edit: all of the above fixed 99% of high rent in my city of 310K
    As for the single people/teens/students in a house... that's a bug that only CO can fix

    In low income areas you definitely need public transport and mixed use zones to help provide cheaper cost of living.
    (also a slight increase in taxes for commercial and offices would help).

    • @fashionforty
      @fashionforty Місяць тому

      I'm wondering if that's the best solution. If you mixed zones like commercial with row house and low density residential, would it not actually increase the land value therefore making rent more expensive. I'm having issues with my small city right now as well with rent for residents and commercial and industrial services.

    • @Luketom
      @Luketom Місяць тому +1

      @@fashionforty it does increase the land value however (bc it becomes more livable) with a higher population there’s more tax revenue to maintain your infrastructure and services. It may seem obvious but a densely populated area with facilities nearby by can sustain itself more efficiently than low density areas dependant on cars (which creates more traffic).

    Usually my city has big population swings and that seems to bug the processor down a lot. I’m running a high end system 4090 and i9 14900k. When my simulation slows down I pause the game for a brief second and then unpause. Seems to fix the sim speed for a couple seconds until I have enough to do it again.. If the simulation breaks (aka) looks like frame by frame movement I have to save the game real quick and restart from desktop. Literally breaks the game. I do this process until all the kinks are worked out and my simulation runs again. You just have to be careful when ur city gets to a certain point when u rezone or build new neighborhoods!

    Would you consider expanding the downtown bixton area to the other side of the river. The transition from super tall sky scrapers to row housing and low density suburbs seems to quick and would love to see a more extensive/realistic downtown for how far out the map sprawls from the center city

  • @32bitintiger999
    @32bitintiger999 Місяць тому

    I would never have thought that increasing the taxes for the uneducated (who will probably be very poor) would solve high rent problems.
    As for public transport, if it can be used to get everywhere a person needs to go, they will not have to buy a car, which can be a significant expense. I do not know how this would translate into the game though.

      But Paradox is the reason for CS:2's failure. CO wasn't even done with the game yet, and they published the game far from finished.
      My only guess is that other games that they published were half-finished, like Millennia. The DLCs carried them along with modding.

      They did somewhat fix the high rent issue. I learnt that you need to provide other services to citizens to lower the rent.
      For example you need stone mining industries which lower the rent as the materials would be cheaper as it's locally sourced.
      How about learning the game mechanics for once instead of complaining about it
