Who here actually tries?

I'd hazard a guess that most of the active folks on this forum have towns with a pretty reasonable layout. I had a couple of neighbors with chaotic towns like you describe, and I ditched them after a while. Those folks also tend to be the ones who never visit other towns either. Who needs 'em?!

This is for you and the OP together: You see, some people didn't start this game when it was first released. We have to play catch up. In this case, it is FAR better to complete the quests and build buildings and unlock characters FIRST, as this will generate more money in the long term. AFTER a steady flow of money, THEN will we have to buy the land, and FINALLY will we be able to decorate.

Keep in mind that EA also adds content quite fast, so for those of us who didn't have fat wallets of in-game cash, that slows us down even more.

I have now soon played for four months, and I am very active. I have come to the part where I am trying to save up a bit of money for the next update, and at the same time, I am also trying to buy some of the land spots. This has taken a lot of time, and I want to have enough room to decorate. Therefore decoration is the last thing I will do.

I also want to add that I don't housefarm myself, but I understand why some do, as that can get them a bit faster through the steps I just outlined.

So, there you have it!
