In this tutorial, I share a secret trick that I've never seen other people use a trick that is effectively the fastest way to build cities without the use of zoning.

So, ever since I started creating content again, I have been asked multiple times how I create decentlooking suburbs fast – so I figured I would make a tutorial that hopefully explains it all in a few easy steps.

Now I want to stress that I by no means think I have pioneered this technique, but I rarely see other players use it, and judging by all the questions it doesn’t seem to be common knowledge.

Now personally I really value being able to quickly create sprawling neighbourhoods, because when striving for a realistic look they are in my opinion an absolute necessity. If you have a bustling downtown, it’s just not going to feel like much of a city if you don’t also have vast residential neighbourhoods to balance it out.

Now many turn to zoning to achieve this, and I do believe you can achieve some pretty decent results if you spend a lot of time carefully managing the building themes that you allow to grow. Personally, I just rarely get the setup just right for zoning, so Instead what I am doing is I am utilizing a tagbased filter in combination with random selection, both of which are features of the Find It 2 Mod.

When combining these mods with this trick, you pretty much got the fastest way to build cities with plopping!

What's the rationale behind this project:
What happens if a washedupusedtobeYouTuber gathers a bunch of "generic" looking assets (though mostly inspired by Australian / Canadian cityscapes) with the hopes of creating a Cities: Skylines region full of towns and cities that both look realistic and are inspired by Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the USA, while at the same time don't really replicate any one particular style? No idea, let's find out.

Join me in this Cities: Skylines modded gameplay series as we aimlessly expand the region, and build new infrastructure, highways, public transit, industrial pockets, NIMBYneighbourhoods, and bustling downtowns. And of course, use tress excessively to cover up any imperfections!
