any save or pics may be helpful, but IF you have working areas zoned AND you have unemployement, my best bet is that your working zones are somewaht too far away from homes AND probably not serviced well enough with either buses, metro, etc.

BUT if you have zoned more residential, then you will not get any new incomers into your town.

Solve your unemployement (30% is a lot), and it may well get better

Also a shared save that you link here may as well be interesting, far better way to understand what does not work

fix traffic and add more emergency stations like hospitals and fire stations.

Make sure all buildings are levelled up, then make sure you have masstransit (buses, metro and possibly trains) that let people get to work easily.

bus lines metro etc. If you can place them, i have a problem at the moment that i can't place bus lines :s

are you talking about one tile? I could only get 50k on one tile and had to expand out

[Th1AG0GG]

i have at moment 7 tiles

[Sir Samson]

make more industry and offices? thats all you need to do ever?

[Th1AG0GG]

But the Orange Bar is on the bottom,i've already zooned kilometers of offices and industry however people dont go there to build those place,and yes it is conect to the highways and many other streets.

Yo guys thx for help,after some time i realized i had to many Young Adults,too many people dying and no Babys,so i removed some High Den and added some Low Den,after 5months in game the city was growing back again and i the unemployment rate was going down.

Your city will enter periods like that. I've had multiple times where that happened and all demand for residential areas fell to the floor even though there are plenty of jobs available, but eventually, it snaps out of it. I think my first one was at 50k, then one at around 80k, and another at 90k.

[BonPadre]

And that's why I very often suggest to build with a mix of smaller zone patches so it will "flatten* all those extreme reactions, and probably help you on a lot of other issues you may witness in near furure.

Going into your city statistics, you may want to see more birth rate than influx for your city, meaning the growth will be far slower, but that more much realistic

I think you should delete some industry and replace it with high density stuff so people aren't so overeducated at the jobs. You can do that even industry has lots of jobs. Also, check people incase there are equal amount of birth and deaths per week.

Holy necro!
Don't you think the OP will have figured that out 3 years ago?!
A good optician that way -------------------------------------------------------------->

Was wondering when this popped up what has happened now since I haven't commented on any threads in this game for years.....thought it was a bug or something =p

[Triggerhippy]

Also as well as the necro, over education is never a problem. Civs will work in jobs they are over educated for if there are no better jobs available and it doesn't effect their happyness. It is always best to educate as much as possible.
