dCity population values are trending back down
I have been watching the population stats value pretty closely over the past year.
Today I want to share the best marketplace options for buying population stat.
These are buildings that have population stat.
Buildings like these aren't susceptible to the lifecycle that ultimately kills our citizens and allows us to stack population that will always remain active
Population Cost Efficiency in dCITY
Our largest source of population is the Apartment, with 20 population but it is definitely not the most cost efficient, however it does offer 5 Income as well.
Apartment is a solid choice if you are looking to place a bid and the ask price isn't too bad with a population cost of 750 SIM.
This is cheaper than all citizens so I will give it a go ahead.
Purchase now if you are interested!
The Basic Home
offers 1 Income with its 4 population and is the second-best choice for cost efficiency and even has usage in some combines that offer tax refund.
The population cost of Basic Home is 650 and the bid to ask spread is much smaller than apartment so they are much more liquid in this aspect.
There has been a huge decrease in the value of SIM over all this time because of overprinting inflation which can be seen reflected in the value of Basic Home since 2021.
The same type of situation can be seen in the mainstream real estate market where home values have skyrocketed during times of high inflation.
The most cost-efficient option
Barracks are by far the most efficient population stat right now.
Only 350 SIM population cost is incredible compared to the others.
The only difference and downside to Barracks is that it doesn't offer income, and it has a -1 popularity.
Finale
Whether you are new to the game or have been letting your city collect dust these deals on population may not last long.
The Barracks and Basic Home NFTs have the ability to combine into buildings that offer a tax refund or some other special benefit such as a citizen minting claim.
Apartment has yet to be included in a combine, but you can expect that the future will utilize this rare card.
