lol my first city got some straight up hoods in it... complete with high-rise housing projects and a whole neighborhood filled with abandoned buldings and shit
but yeah this game is confusing the shit outta me, my residential demands are over the top but when i zone em, they refuse to build houses... and the area around it got schools, a police station, a fire station, hospitals, parks, etc... i didn't have this problem in the last 2 games
