      I live by the Extra Credits creed "Fail quickly". It's about learning from your mistakes as quickly as possible and not getting trapped by them, being flexible enough to adapt to changing circumstances and resilient enough to bounce back from being wrong, because it's okay to be wrong. It's okay to fail, everybody fails at some point, it's all about learning from our failures and coming back better than ever.

It'd also explain why people keep coming back after the last residents got mass-killed in poorly managed natural disasters! Death ain't shit to 'em

    Honestly, I do kind of love the complete difference in these challenges compared to the others. Zomboid? "I did this, this and this, and I was a manly man for it." Kenshi? "I have a cunning plan!" Sims? "Though it was a struggle, I managed to make my Sim the richest man alive with a mighty mansion!"
    But Cities: Skylines? "I made a city... It may have caused the French Revolution. But the second city did better and only maybe kind of possibly caused the Irish Potato famine, so overall a win!" It's just overwhelmingly less confident than other game challenges.

    oh and its loaded with round-abouts which only work if the morning mental stunted can manage to work them, most of which can't.
    my previous town was a grid, regardless of traffic, you could zip thru the town without issue as long as you knew the general direction, it was great and I miss it.

No wonder the city was losing its inhabitants, the young were leaving the city and only the elders remained, and died with time. It had 17k people in 2010, but then some industries got there and it started growing again, it had 23k people in 2022
