Now I'm curious what the payout on my town is it better be earning folks a fortune. And after spending well into triple digits on this game, still no ETA on a response from EA that a chunk of the doughnuts they sold me vanished. I won't hold my breath.
I tried this on a few neighbors (5 or 6 as they were all I had left until tomrrow.
I got $60 per tap - 180 per visit.
I was wondering if you visit a premium town, then a 'regular' town, does it reset? Will I get $60 from a premium, then go to a regular town and get $25 and have it reset?
Thanks I have a premium town if you want to add me (angiepie02) x

No, the money earned per building continues to increase with each town you visit in a single run. As soon as you leave the neighborhood screen - either by choice (returning to your own Springfield) or not (crash) - the "multiplier" resets.
I start my first tap by going to a high premium friend and I get $28 from them. Then I go to another high premium friend and tap once in their town and it usually increase $3-$5 each tap. Once I finish with all the premium run then I will start tapping all 3 taps in each town since I can't do 300 visits. By the time I get to the last town, the last 3 days I get $254 for the tap at the end. I usually bring in between $60k-$70k each day doing this.
Yesterday I visited all my friends, took notes of people that had almost everything, people that had 3 or 4, and people that had a couple. After making the list I went and collected from my premium friends first and was getting $350 per tap before the game crashed. Today I started the same process and I was only getting around $250 at the end of my premium friend list. I figured there must be some type of rolling bonus every time you visited a friend, so I tested this. I visited one of my friends that has almost everything (I already collected 3 times from him), then I visited a friend with no premium items, collected from a house, and received a $5 increase. I repeated this numerous times - visiting a friend with everything, not collecting from them, visiting a friend with no premium items, and collecting from a house with a large bonus. I went from $250 a building to about $450 a building before getting completely sick of this, but for those of you with a massive amount of patience it can be a way to get even more money and essentially turn all your neighbors into premium neighbors.

Egads, this little 'cheat' is becoming ever more complex! Not to mention lucrative. This game really does foster patience.
Patience indeed, I think following that method would take over 2 hours. My wife thinks my virtual Springfield is pretty cool, but when I start taking notes and multiple hours visiting friends I get the "isn't there something more productive you can be doing" look.
And of course she's right.
Instead of going a-z back to a and then to z, I visited four neighbors back to back on each page working my way to z once. I ended with $450 a tap and $30xp. Not as much as others, but good enough for me.

That's what I do too...far too much work to go through multiple times/find premiums first.
So I take it page by page. The towns that have premium items, I'll jump in and out of 3 times. The ones that don't, I'll just collect all at once. Then when I'm done with those 4, I turn the page and move on. Still slow, but much quicker than it could be. I was somewhere in the $400s before a Facebook notification knocked me out.
Welp, I did it. Got all the way through from Other Springfield all the way to Zuzupj and back again and back through a third time, all without a single crash. Feels good man.
By the end I was getting $590 per tap and my overall total was about $96K.

You can do it faster if you don't collect every time. Tap a building, when the money shows, leave and on to the next.
I do it under an hour with 100 friends. First visiting the premium friends, and then the rest.
I don't know if what I'm saying has been suggested already but I think I can expand on this idea. I don't think it's necessarily premium buildings than increase income from visiting friends but in fact premium items. I've been to many a town on my friends list who have a few premium buildings and it literally only increases my income by $1. There are 3 people on my friends list in particular who I can only assume have either jail broken devices or wads of spare cash at their disposal because they have the likes of 3 news vans, 6 satellite dishes, they go through white fences like regular players go through brown fences and so on. They usually increase my income by $8-10 each visit. I also noticed once I didn't even get a bonus from someone who had 2 premium buildings but I got a plus $3 bonus for someone who only had one premium building, but had the tire fire and the Springfield sign.
This could make sense considering the purpose of premium ITEMS is to add a bonus to income where premium BUILDINGS do not. I may be wrong, I've tried to find a few patterns and I've been disproved before but if anyone else wants to give it a go they can let us know their findings. I can't try again for about another 12 hours.
I'm assuming that the person's % bonus of the conform-o-meter plus whatever premium items add to it is what's tied to the bonus you receive by entering their town and tapping or spray painting something.
Today was a big one for me. Based on a previous posters comment about visiting high premium friends and not collecting anything, I decided to do that with my high premium friends before I even started my first tap. Just visit and leave and go to another high premium friend and visit and leave. I did this for a few times and my first tap in the other Springfield gave me $43. So I picked 2 high premium friends close to each other and visit and exit them. Did this about 20 times each town and then my second tap in the other Springfield gave me $106. I just kept doing this while watching tv and when the show finished, I started on my 3rd house tap and got $547. After that I just started tapping all 3 houses in each town and finished with $613 for the last tap and $169k total richer. Even after I collected from all my high premium friends, I went and visit them a few times before collecting from a regular friend again and the next tap increased a lot. As long as you visit a high premium friend collected or not, it will always increase the amount in the next tap 8)
Holy bananas in lederhosen! That is some serious cheddar. I suppose after my lightning round last night I can afford to spend more time tonight on my visits. @PeterG -- I'm visiting you first, Mr. Premium!

Yup! Works for me!
