Regional population struggles

Hey, 

I have unlocked 4 of 5 regions and also unlocked all land sections available in those 4 regions. To unlock the 5th and final region I need a regional population of 10000000, currently with space in ever region maxed out with houses I am at a regional population of 8483209. 

Does anyone know or have any tips to get regional population up to this number? I have also maxed out beach and mountain additions in relevant regions…not sure how I can further increase population as there’s no more space for it. 

  • @4bf45430223bc07d Get rid of Old Town houses and replace with regional houses specific to each region and if you have not done so already, build some normal Residentials and make them Epics. You could also build a clump of Omegas as well.
    Also examine closely any specialist buildings and replace them with similar but with a higher boost.
    You will need to check that you have not over subscribed them, as in there is no point in having 2 landmarks next to each other covering the same area.
    Finally that brings me to Hotspots, use them, upgrade them as often as you can afford to do so.
    I hope some of the above helps you achieve your goals 🤔

    2,500,000/region -  is that even possible? What is your maximum population in a region? (I have unlocked the third region, so I cannot really help.)

    @alifie1 I hate to be the bearer of bad news but...
    I have a friend with 5 regions, 2 of which have over 6 million population, another 2 with over 5 million and the 5th has over 4 million.
    His capital alone is at over 14 million.
    Something to aim for huh? 🤣
  • Thank you, currently my regions are all filled with regional houses; there is no space for more….but I do need to try a few suggestions from your post.

    Thanks,  Grumpy, your response kicked me to reorganize the oldest of my regions.

    If I had any doubts, …. … I have just visited Polo City, all five regions open and total population over 22 milions.  I wish there was a way to see the regions, I visited through Global Trade HQ and could see only the Capital.

    With most of the huge ones, there's a trade off for design over density by the looks of them. Personally I am not a fan of rows and rows of skyscrapers with roughly 20 or more ultimate mayor statues scattered around, a beach full of deltas and a mountainside full of waterfalls.

    It's each to their own though so good luck to them 🤣
