If you want, you can even put together a little island out in the middle of nowhere and, if you set up the place right, Sims will move to your city in their hundreds. Since you’re the Mayor, you can build anything you desire and you can count on there being some Sims that will want to move in. There are Sims who’d like to live in a metropolis, or maybe an industrial town is more their thing. There are all kinds of cities that Sims are willing to live in. Just remember-if you don’t give them what they’re looking for, there’s always some other Mayor out there who will and Sims can be quick to leave for greener pastures. Sure, they can do some things on their own, but it’s up to you to give them a nice place to live, to work, to raise their families, to pursue happiness, and all of those other things they should be allowed to do. But you’re so much more than just their Mayor. All of the people that live in all of the little SimCities in that huge SimNation, they’re all Sims and you’re their new Mayor. You are charged with creating a city that brings your dreams to life, but you also have to provide a good life for your Sims. I’m sure you are eager to get your city started, but there are a few things you need to know before you dive in. Hello and welcome to SimCity 3000™! Congratulations on your election as Mayor of one of the finest SimCities in the entire SimNation. ī ASICS OF THE P UBLIC S AFETY D EPARTMENT. 53ī ASICS OF THE E NVIRONMENTAL D EPARTMENT. ī ASICS OF THE C ITY P LANNING D EPARTMENT. 44ī ASICS OF THE T RANSPORTATION D EPARTMENT. 31Ī DVISORS, P ETITIONERS, AND N EIGHBOURS.
