About the Project:
Sunset City is a series based on the US state of Florida. Not just taking inspiration from the most iconic tourist destinations or glamorous beaches, Sunset City will focus on capturing the entire state from North to South. We will cover such cities as Miami, Tampa and Orlando, as well as some towns in between. Most importantly Florida's natural landscaping spanning from the tropical beaches to the vast wetlands of the Everglades.

The storytelling and immersion you’re able to create in your series is a joy to watch and it’s a pleasure to be a part of it. The intro was so beautifully presented with the indoor scenes, music and voiceover, it was nothing short of incredible and totally worth it.
Colossal Order in 2015: here’s our new city builder game. You can build massive cities on huge maps!
2D20 in 2023: cities are nice and all… but you know what, I want to do interior design…
Bro. This is not a city planning series any more. You are creating a world, which is so awesome.
The Valencia club is owned by a Mafia, that get into dealings with Mike to help him out of his tough situation.
And holy carp he just deleted the arena!!!
Love your work mate.
That would be interesting if this gets picked up
What if the mafia is working with king buns and secretly working in the kitchen lacing his burgers with an addictive powdrr
Maybe Mike pissed off the wrong person in the mafia. To send a message, they burned down his house. Now, to save his family, he has to work hands on with the mafia (against his will). They run the Valencia club, which is why he stays in such a run down area and meets at the club
Wow, what an episode! You are twisting and turning City Skylines into something way beyond a city building game. I am impressed how patient (interior details?!) and ruthless you are (which I guess is fitting for Florida city design). I love Sunset City.
I lived in Gainesville, FL for a bit. It's a university town with a huge football team (Gators) but most interesting to me the campus had a big lake in the middle which had actual alligators. Not sure if this is true, but I was told the groundskeeper even lost an arm to an alligator in that lake. Now that's some lore. 🐊
(Spoiler comment, don't read if you haven't watched the whole episode!)
As for the Fab Arena situation at the end, I like the plot of land it sits on both for the arena and a decaying industrial area. I think it would be best to do a transition between the two. There will still be plenty of run down businesses and warehouses, but there are lots of plots that are empty or in the process of being demolished/renovated. Probably a huge amount of advertisement in the area displaying what is being planned for it, and that advertisement probably spreads throughout the city to showcase the stadium's grand opening at some point in the future.
As a bonus, it creates the opportunity to have some interesting plot lines, as many of the business owners whose businesses are planned to be demolished as well as businesses who use the cargo hub are unhappy with the city's decision and are protesting that decision in some way (protests, violence, etc). This further goes to highlight Fabio's character as an eccentric billionaire who is really out of line with the public and their perception of him.
I would love it if the Fab Arena came back, but it stayed half-developed; like the money ran out halfway through construction. Then we get the arena, sort of, but also the industrial area gets to stay, sort of.
Honestly, I could see the industrial area at the then-Fab Arena becoming the Fab Arena probably later on in the 21st century after some gentrification and stuff, and I think the foreshadowing of what the area would become in the future based on your suggestion sounds like a great idea.
Island Towns: Obviously Key West and then also the part of Anne Marie Island where Bradenton Beach is located, which is connected through Cortez, a fishing village that hasn’t been destroyed by AirBnB yet.
Mining: Mount Dora, a resort town that has an Aluminum Iron Mine on the outskirts, interesting little place.
Logging: Daytona, sorta. Not anymore but it was a thing.
Farming: Belle Glade and South Bay. Farm towns northwest of Miami-Fort Lauderdale.
Oil: The Panhandle is pretty much a giant oil field with a couple of beach towns and resorts blocking the entire place from being a cash cow. Destin and Pensacola or if you want more interior Crestview are the oil towns in Florida
So, I have an idea for a gang you can use. A lot of Miami in the 80’s was not PG but since you requested it, I’ll adjust! The gang is an all female gang named the Flamingos. They look like your typical glam’d up 80’s girls with wild hair, shades and bright colors. They are really into fixing up old cars from the 50’s and make their money trafficking custom motorcycles from Sunset to your Tampa-like city and can be seen having drag races on lonely Everglades roads. They mainly fight for territory under the neon glow of Sunset Beach. Their leader Randy, has a fondness of high heels. Picture pipes and chains and synth-rock. 😅
Growing up in Florida, my grandma used to live in Homosassa, as a town it’s pretty representative of rural Florida, but it’s also got a large tourism aspect, with Snorkeling and Manatee boat tours being the standouts. Seeing something like the Homosassa Visitor Center, which has boat tours and a manatee reservation could be cool.
Some towns in south Florida you could take inspiration from:
Okeechobee - It’s right on the shore of the lake and might be cool for a larger town up north
Immokalee - a little bit further west, but has a lot of farmland close by
Belle Glade - also near the lake, lots of orange groves nearby too. Would be amazing to see in CS!
No joke, this city feels real with its stories and people in it. Great job!
Take a look at this city called Cape Coral, FL. It’s in SWFL on the west coast of Florida opposite of Miami. It’s the biggest canal town in the world and could potentially be cool to add to the northern side of the island. Immaculate story telling and i’m loving how the cities coming along. Keep up the great work!
For agriculture you could make orange groves and a citrus center/greenhouse!
Love that intro mate, taking the game in a cool direction!
Every town has underground spots and unique little places. In Vegas, Izakaya Go is a great example. A tiny little bar with the best food in the city with a great atmosphere to boot. Making small, detailed spots that feel like only the locals would know about adds a huge level of realism. Keep up the great work!
And as for the gangs, bikers should have a club house on the edge of town. The mob is in charge of the area made in this episode. Little Havana is occupied by some kind of South American drug outfit, this is the 80’s after all. And some kind of traditional street gang in a run down neighborhood
With the train line over the highway, there is a bridge somewhere in the U.S where it got nicknamed the Can Opener Bridge because it was so low that trucks would get their roofs sheared off by the top of the bridge. Maybe that could be something similar in your intersection? Anyway, love the series!
The amount of effort going into these videos is absolutely insane! Thank you for this. I think that under the ramps near the down town would look really realistic with a couple parking lots and lots of homeless camps (Tents, barrels of fire, crates, tires everywhere, etc.) Never been to Miami but if it was anything like LA then thats accurate. Cheers!
for inspiration for your farming town, look at Melbourne or Vero Beach, Florida..because both have barrier islands like you have along the northern side. Vero is an agri-town with nearby lagoons, swamps and a wildlife refuge. Melbourne is part of the Space Coast of Florida, if you wanted to bring a NASA, Cape Canaveral build into the map.
shoutout Vero Beach 🙌
I think you should add passing loops for the railways asthe current stup only allows one direction to use the network at a time
I'm so glad you were inspired by my advice for railroad infrastructure! Feel free to ask any train questions, anytime. I really have been enjoying the lift bridges and detailed right of way.
Would love to see some garages underneath the highway bridges like the first ones you get in GTA Online. Would be fitting if you could maybe make some sort of underground street racing scene there
Awesome episode. I don’t know when you built this all, but REVO just released some street-running tracks with rail lines down the middle. Could give some areas an interesting look.
Oh man this storytelling is next level. Seriously unmatched, bringing in the characters and the music and everything just goes together so so well. 10/10
I'm really loving this series to the point where I'm watching these episodes multiple times. Truly amazing to incorporate the storytelling aspect!
"He's living at the Oasis Hotel.... no not that one... yeah, that one" Got me good TDT 🤣
I love trains and train infrastructure. The rundown look of the city feels very real, you did a brilliant job!
I like to think of TwoDollarsTwenty videos as a special treat at the end of the week
20:50 for the train line, it would be cool to see an ‘old’ train line that might be elevated just a few meters off the ground, to avoid sinking into the swamp. Maybe this rail section can be following along the highway, but at a bit of a distance, something that while driving on the highway, you could see a few glimpses of the train through the cypress and evergreen trees.
I think we need a Surfer gang that occupies the beaches! I think that would be kinda of funny.
A light-hearted gang idea, Los solucionadores de cubos (the cube solvers), a Cuban gang who is all about dealing in rubix cubes. Their main territory should be at a campus area, with the smaller groups hanging around schools and libraries.
Loving the city and storyline! Keep up the great work
Loving this so much! Seeing those trains go past in the run down neighborhoods with the skyline in the background feels so cool. The club being next to the tracks as well, showing things off at nighttime in Cities:Skylines really helps the vibe too. I love seeing those
Coming from the midwest, train lines in farmlands generally stop at massive grain silos where the whole area sells their grain to. Commercial scale slaughterhouses usually have connections (to offload cattle and load meat). Most lumberyards still have active rail sidings if you're looking for a smaller idea that needs train service.
just fired up cities skylines today for the first time in a good 6 months+ i spent like 3 hours going through mod compatibilitiy reports, updating mods, changing to improved versions, unsubscibing from obselete ones. damn its time consuming. but at the end of the day i was glad i did it because now ive built the foundations of my new city based around smaller towns with a train station as the point of focus. ill never achieve a level of detail like you do in your videos, but i will attempt to build something functional that spans all 81 tiles with far reaching smaller towns interconnected and then redevelop them as they need to grow.
I LOVE that nightclub interior! Props to you and those who made the assets! Great work!
As for gangs, I've heard tell of The Fish, a gang that roves the docks at night, staging illegal fighting fish (or betta fish) matches for big profits. They also commit burglary to steal fighting fish from aquaria, and the only weapons they are known to use are fishbowls of piranha.
For a fun rural Floridian town, you could model it after "Appalappachobie" from episode 17 of season 2 of The Golden Girls, where the town's point of pride is that all trains leave half-an-hour early.
Florida grows sugar cane, which has its controversial elements (search sugar cane burning). If there's a good fire/smoking asset in the workshop, you could make the agricultural area north of Sunset City a large burning sugar cane field. You could build the sugar refinery, too.
Hey! I just came back from a three week holiday in Florida with my parents. We drove around so much and the most beautiful town/city I saw was Celebration. It was near Orlando and I would like to see you build that.
i loved this epsidoe 😭i think u should include a knock off disney land and a mall of america somewhere lol💀
For the newspaper, it should be the Sunset City Sentinel. Alliteration, and it shares the name with the wonderful local paper in my home town
Exciting that we're starting to venture north out of the city. Any chance we're going to see a Kennedy-inspired space center at some point?
Absolutely! Still a little while away
A town outside of miami is a small farming town called immokolee. Majority of people in immokolee work in the fields picking various produce including tomatoes, citrus, watermelon and tropical fruits. The town has very small homes and even some trailer homes. The town also has little villages made specifically for field workers. the villages have tiny row homes and even a couple markets. immokolee has a couple fast food restaurants and grocery stores. immokolee has a very small town feel. I think immokolee we be an amazing addition to the seminole state. Many migrant families come to immokolee for work.
I lived in a rural Florida town! Loxahatchee is West of Palm Beach and it was a giant "neighborhood" of single family properties, except every single home sat on over an acre of land. People could do whatever they'd like with land, some of my neighbors had horses, some had huge gardens of citrus trees, I had one neighbor turn his backyard into a BMX dirt track. It was considered unincorporated so the county couldn't really do any code enforcement since it was technically not under its jurisdiction. Just outside of the residential area there were massive sugarcane and citrus farms that took up a huge chunk of marshland, and there was also a tourist attraction called Lion Country Safari. It's a drive through zoo, great for day trips. Just thought I'd tell you that's probably how most rural communities are in Florida.
The story telling in this world is crazy detailed and I love it!
I think you should add a couple rail cars by the Valencia club to show that maybe the mafia or Mike burgundy has bribed the railroad company into smuggling there “goods” so now the company is corrupt and under control by some corrupt business men
Seeing how this takes place in Florida, there should totally be some advertisements like billboards and such for this universe’s version of DisneyWorld. Epcot opened in 81 and Hollywood Studios opened in 89 so maybe the advertisements could be advertising a new ‘DisneyWorld’ park
Belle Glades is a good city to use for farm land. Its a bunch of sugar cane. The town is nicknamed Muck City. Sugar corporations play a big part in government here in Florida and there lack of ethics leads to a bunch of terrible natural disasters such as red tide and huge algae blooms. It started in the 40's here and is still going strong today.
Agriculturally directly south of the lake is sugar cane. Northwest of the lake was oranges. Northeast of the lake is cattle. South towards Homestead is mostly fruits and vegetables.
Around Lakeland, was and still is phosphate mining.
Great episode as always. For your North Florida town, I recommend Tallahassee. I live in Tallahassee so I’m biased but it’s the capital of Florida, has two large universities (one being a football powerhouse historically) and would capture the cultural and geographical differences between South Florida and North Florida
Another thing you can include is mining. There is a lot of mining industry in Florida. Thinking about the railroad through the swamp, that is something that doesn't exist. When you follow the freeway (I-75 "Alligator Alley") East/West, it is simply the freeway through 80 miles of nothing but sawgrass. With the gangs, there is a significant drug trafficking community in Florida. On another note, I love your series.
By far the best episode of sunset city imo :) Thanks for that!
A bit off color, but you know what I'd love to see on the North End of the map? After the farmlands, maybe a college town small town. Something pretty residential, and very Americana small town feel, with a university in it. With elements of Florida college towns like Gainesville, and maybe even other Southeastern U.S. college towns like Athens, GA (without the hills/mountains of course!!!). Like a quaint but dense little downtown with restaurants and bars, and one big football stadium, inspired by SEC stadiums. Think it'd be a cool edition to make another little community, that's on it's own, but is just like a typical 30 minutes away from a major city small town.
For the agriculture area, you should definitely include at least one large sod farm. While driving through central Florida, you pass huge sod farms with miles of grass. For more rural towns, I love the small town charm of LaBelle, FL. The more obvious choice is Okeechobee, it is a larger town and surrounded by (what feels like)endless farms on three sides, and a lake on the other.Hope this helps! Absolutely amazing work on this episode, I cannot believe what you have done with Cities Skylines!
amazing episode! love u 2$20! For the town in the swampland I was thinking of taking inspiration of the towns Montura and South Bay. U could maybe make that train line go to there and make it an abandoned train line again.
nooo he deleted FAB Arena :( :(
I love the gangs idea, as a kid I too loved GTA2. I vividly remember the Zaibatsu driving their cars with big Z on top, or the Loonies (?) driving green cars with a smiley face on top.
Which brings me to my point, I think it would be great if each gang in Sunset City had their own type car too!
My ideas for gangs:
- suits/execs style gang, driving limousines based in and around the downtown
- Eastern european mafia, maybe connected to industry/construction, based in Dodge Island, driving in pickups/vans, looking like contractor vehicles
- a gang based around the outskirts of the city, living in the swamps, driving buggies, or even airboats
- a Cuban/Caribbean style gang based around Little Havana driving some old classic cars
I cannot begin to tell you how much I love this series. It is honestly a stroke of genius to have decided to include a story telling element to this. By the way, are you finished with Oceania?
Thank you! I’m not just trying to get ahead in SC before switching mods and assets
You should have a more classic 30s style mob gang that runs the valencia. This could be the same mob that is doing shady business with Mike Burgandy and thats why he is at the valencia. Then in the same area you can have a more 80s style gang who defend the people and culture of the area from the mob and who generally try to uplift the community and stop violence in their community. The mob could be called the Valentinos and have a Mexican or cuban style and culture. Btw i love the run down industrial area you made so much, its so realistic and suits the build so well.
Also as for the downtown you can have a sort of corporate gangs that bride police and more normal gangs and works with the corporate interests. Something kinda similar to the different corpos in cyberpunk just less militaristic and more shady guys in suits.
This series is coming along very nicely!
As for ideas for gang inspiration, the Mafia is for sure a perfect fit, as the had all kinds of dealings in Miami during the 1980s, some legitimate, others not so much. A backstory for this can be that the Mafia could be in control in the garbage collection and construction businesses split between two families: one from New York, and one from Chicago. Both families would have came down during the 1950's, when places like Florida started to become more popular as a tourist and retirement destination, so many of them got in early on the construction boom. Sunset City, given it's location, would also be of interest as the the many swamps and islands proved valuable in sneaking in their illegal wares as the large amount of swampland gives local law enforcement a difficult time.
By 1983, things would be on the upswing for the two families, but new street gangs and other organizations would start coming in (such as private corporations moving in on their shady construction and garbage business). Naturally they would feel this outside pressure, but perhaps the peace between the two families would eventually fade away as more of their income streams dry up from the new competition. In addition, the FBI would see this going on, and decide it's time to slowly start rooting them out of the city's affairs.
I live in Florida, we have a lot of fruits and cattle, further north you can find small towns with lots of farmlands and trailer parks, Brooksville and region are a good example, north of Tampa where I live 😊
I have a teen gang that you can probably use in a suburb part of town, they are known as “The Pipsqueaks” their short name is referred to as “The Pips” since we are keeping it PG, they are a gang that gets into trouble by marking territory with spray paint. They each have their own factions, the turtles, the hares, the cats and the salamanders. They each mark their logo on the sides of the rail cars that are used for industry and on the sides of the highways. Mostly in the urbanized and industrial highways of sunset city.
St. Augustine is an interesting city in Florida, you could include that place.
All the details are here! Right down to the traffic jams! Wonderful series!!
The cartels pretty much scared away the gangs in the 80's. There was a lot of construction downtown. The running joke was the city mascot was the crane. There were plenty of banks as well scattered all over, one did survive that era, Ocean Bank. There was Anthony Abraham Chevrolet with the largest US flag anywhere in the county. That industrial are began to die off around 83 to 84. It would later become Wynwood.
Yeehaw Junction is a town a little bit north west of Miami. It had a historic hotel called the Desert Inn that a truck crashed into a few years ago. There's not much that goes on there, it's just located in the middle of a couple different wild life preserves at the intersection of two highways. Later on the Florida turnpike was built to run through it.
This series is absolutely gorgeous, I am having so much fun following your journey. Discovered your channel last week and just catched up with the latest episode if Sunset City today. Really had a blast watching through and I am excited to patiently wait for new episodes moving forward!
Keep on with the great work, you're amazing🙌🏻
What I think one of the gangs should have is a vendetta against Mike, and the violence/theft of King Buns stores by the gangs is what was driving customers away from King Buns. Maybe Mike has some history with one of the gangs and was trying to change his life, and that is what caused him to open up the original joint.
Amazing Vid, Gang idea: "The Sunrise Gang" Tis gang often wear orange and hate tennis, you will often see The Sunrise Gang vandalizing tennis courts and always being in trouble with the police, The Sunrise Gang also love their classic cars and ripping up the streets with them.
Great series. With some great stories being added to the city.
I think Sunset City could use a Italian mafia, led by Sonny de Palma, an old school gangster and one of the most powerfull crimebosses in the state, if not the nation. His gang controls the more classical organized crimes like gambling, prostitution, loansharking racketeering, hijacking and union corruption. His gang could be placed in the downtown area.
In regards to the rural towns they could use some industries like a sawmill, slaughterhouse or a leatherfactory making boots or jackets
Anyways looking forward to the next episode, keep up the good job.
The palm heads, a notorious gang that occupy the seaside downtown. They can be identified by the green bandana on top of their head in the style of a palm tree, as well as their strong opinions on city expansions. They are also know for causing trouble to corporations that ambitiously try to expand the city without thinking about the environment.
Bags of cocunut powder, dehydrated to add to smoothies! Unfortunately, due to the Cuban blockade in the 80's, it must be imported 'under the radar'.....
Here’s my idea for a gang:
The Garage Men - Following the gradual decline of industry, many factory workers were left without a job, leading them to into a life of crime, eventually some of these former factory workers would come together to form a gang known as the Garage Men. Unlike other gangs, they aren’t particularly violent, and instead steal cars parked on the side of the road in the night, they take these cars back to their chop-shop and dismantle them for parts, yet they use their prior work experience in the factories to rebuild some, selling them at a used car shop that they use to bring in profits, whilst the cars are flashy, the quality of them is subpar and they’re known to not be the most reliable. The Garage Men inhabit the decaying industrial areas of Sunset City, due to their homes being in close proximity.
For agriculture, you should do sugar cane, corn, and I think rice was the third one that okeelanta grew.I used to live in West palm beach and would go to work with my grandfather at this huge sugar mill so spent a lot of time around sugar and agricultural stuff in south Florida
There is this town in Belgium called Doel which is a town located next to a nuclear powerplant. For a very long time it was just a normal town but in recent years the government wanted to switch it up and make that town into an expansion of the port (theyve had these plans since 1965). So all the people that lived in the town got "evicted" (they got money for their houses) and the town went abandoned. This place became very well known for people who like urbex but also for the homeless and for streetracing. More recently the goverment said that theyre not going through with the plans. So the town got abandoned for nothing and to this day its still a ghost town. (As of 1 September 2009, people are no longer allowed to live in the village. In 2021, there were still 19 people living in the village and 91 in the surrounding area.)
On 30 March 2022, a compromise was reached after a 24-year long legal battle. The Port of Antwerp is allowed to extend its container harbour, and the village of Doel is allowed to exist. A green buffer zone will be created between the harbour and the village.
It would be dope for you to maybe include some type of ghost town maybe even with a nuclear powerplant. Anyway thanks for being such a dope youtuber!
As a Floridian I think that oranges would be more appropriate than grains in the farming area. Anyone who has driven through the state will tell you that the rural areas are mostly cattle farms and orange orchards. Grains are more common in the Great Plains region in the Midwest but due to Florida's climate and geography oranges have become one of the biggest industries in the state and part of the state's identity. The state flower is even an orange blossom.
What a plot twist !! Personally i really liked fab arena, i'm looking forward to see where it could be rebuilt!! Great Episode
Jacksonville could be interesting since it's the largest city by land area in the contiguous United States (it takes up nearly the entirety of Duval County). However, it's also very loose with large rural or semi-rural sections. North of there is Nassau County, and Nassau has a lot of rural areas, as well as the very lovely Fernandina Beach on Amelia Island. A very small city, but right nearby are a lot of things like logging, farming, fishing, and some light industry. That whole area might be worth a look. There's peach orchards (it's adjacent to Georgia, which is quite famous for its peaches), as well as oranges, apples, and pears. Cane sugar is grown in the Keys and southernmost rural areas.
this series keeps getting better and better!
I'd recommend you take a look at Clewiston, FL for some inspiration for a farming community, especially for one with rail access. US Sugar is headquartered there, and they have their own railroad to service the mill and farmland. They also run a tourist train out of there as well, but I don't know if they were doing that back in the '80s. Otherwise you could look at Hastings or East Palatka near where I currently live, small towns with a lot of agriculture (and forestry too!) surrounding them.
I’m looking forwards to see everything fall into place!
that's so impressive i was enjoying from min 1 to the end! thx for all
As a native Floridian I would love to see some representation of the poorer rural farming towns that are all along the interior of south Florida on the west side, towns such as Arcadia. And as far as farming, Florida is a big producer of citrus especially oranges and also is one of the bigger cattle states.
you could follow the story line like :- Fab soda company have their farms of oranges, while transporting them they get robbed by a certain gang which get their profits through infrequent but surprised robberies. You can set up a town in the outskirts to portray that the gangs have their bases there and run silently. Also you can add a conflict between the businesses and the gangs which increases crimes in the city. So yeah :) im here late but consider this !! have a gday ;)
A neat little Florida town is Sebring! It has farmland, a world famous race track around an old airport, and is close to a prototype utopian community (The Venus Project). You'd have to include a mobile home park too... they are quintessential to the south Florida 55+ scene!
C:S 2 is officially announced! 🎉
I love the Tarpon Springs Sponge docks, I used to go there a lot as a kid but since covid i haven’t gone at all. I also love St Augustine cause of all the history and old architecture
I’d recommend checking out Ave Maria, Florida. It seems right up your alley for a town out in the middle of nowhere
Dade city used to have a lot of orange production around it but recently has transition into cattle and general farming, still a pretty place though and gives the perfect small town vibe
Florida is full of horse farms/ranches and also has tons of horse showing facilities like WEF in West Palm
I think a biker club would be cool, would fit the period well. The the sunset city scooter club! Think mods of the 60's for reference.. Keeping it light hearted!
The undeveloped highway east of the four-way intersection north of the downtown, actually goes towards one of the Seminole Keys. It also connects to the downtown in an intersection. Train and industry development aswell as a road network could make for a really good port!
You could have a gang standoff in the swamp lands arguing about who controls coconut imports to the city.
the Villages... a classic Florida retirement community :P
For farmland inspiration I’d recommend Pahokee and the rest of the Lake Okeechobee region. Bit run down.
Might I suggest: Melbourne, Florida AKA "The Space Coast" for the eastern section of Seminole. Named after Melbourne, Australia! It was my hometown and I lived there for almost 20 years. It's a mainland connected to a bunch of barrier islands with bridges and a huge air force base and of course, NASA! Check it out sometime! I think you will like it! 🚀🛰🏖
11:56 I think that an area filled with tents of homeless people (like in GTA 5) would fit well under the highway. Love the episode, keep it up!
Gazette is just a really fun word!
Pahokee, Belle Glade and Okeechobee as inspiration for your farmland towns. Would love to see those.
Florida agriculutre is big on cattle, oranges and in Miami , Sugar Cane
There’s some interesting smaller towns along the central Florida railroad which could provide inspiration for the inland towns and swamp rail line
You can make a railway embankment on the swamps maybe
This is great!
Hey two dollars, you know what would be an awesome idea for a relatively low effort and very iconic location? Abandoned Everglades Jetport runways, that famous scraped mega airport project that fizzled out mid construction cause supersonic jets were on their way out and it raised huge environmental concerns.
Not a town idea, but having a cape Canaveral type area would be cool. It is something that is very unique to Florida.
