Place different zones in areas in your city. This allocates the types of buildings that appear in different areas. You can zone areas as industrial, retail or residential. You can also choose low, medium or high density for each zone. The higher the density is, the larger the buildings are. You will now notice buildings appearing on your zones.
Place police stations, fire stations, hospitals and schools along with parks; your citizens will be safer, happier and more educated. This increases the desirability of the areas in your city, which attracts more citizens and businesses. When the population of your city increases, you are rewarded with the Town Hall.
