Build and Conquer Population Growth: Houses, Apartments & Capacity

Which count are you trying to raise?

Choose among total residents, residents in houses, and residents in apartments. The recorded level-2 house condition and level-4 high-rise condition demonstrate why those categories matter. A large apartment can add nominal apartment capacity while leaving a house-specific condition unresolved.

How do you estimate a housing batch?

Subtract the current category count from its target, then divide the gap by the current eligible building’s capacity and round up. For an arithmetic example, 150 missing residents and a 32-person apartment need five copies, or 160 capacity. The resulting ten residents above the target are rounding surplus, not proof that all five buildings fill immediately.

The recorded options provide useful examples but not a universal current capacity table:

Record	Listed nominal capacity
Generic House, October 12	5
Mid Rise City Apartment 1/2, Fundo	32 each
Mid Rise City Apartment 3, Fundo	40
High Rise City Apartment, Fundo	48
Glass Apartment Tower, October 11	180

What must be checked alongside capacity?

Unlock gates, road placement, energy, water, steel, money and upkeep can still constrain the plan. Free workers are a distinct counter and there is no verified universal population-to-worker ratio. Do not turn a nominal capacity calculation into a prediction of staffing or the time required to reach a city level.
