I've added a police station, a gym, and a cinema specifically because those are supposed to help you curb the crime in your city. I still seem to deal with a fair amount of it, but I could stand to get more of everything. I'm putting some Hive into it, but I don't want to go crazy spending on a game.
Aside from that, a large focus of mine is just adding workers as often as I can. I'm trying to add buildings and add workers at a somewhat equal pace so that I never end up too far out-of-balance.
The amount of SIM I earn seems to go consistently go down if I don't keep adding, though. It would be tempting to maybe just let the SIM accumulate and spend that building the city, but that would result in a glacial pace.
Yesterday, I found some SBD (Steem backed dollars) in my Bittrex account that was locked since late 2018. It was only like 3 SBD, but it ended up being over 80 Hive by the time I was done with it. I put a lot of that into dCity, but not all of it. I'm playing other games as well! I bought a few things for Rising Star, which I'm playing as @scootermcd.
So far, posting pretty consistently about Rising Star has been the best thing I can do as far as earning some modest amounts of HBD is. To be fair, though, I don't post as much about this game because it doesn't seem as obvious what I can make updates about sometimes.
Those are the two games I'm playing too! And yes, it becomes this obsessive focus to build and build and build... but it'll blossom faster than you think. Your income seems to be dropping because the taxes are higher than usual, in an effort to raise the SIM price. That will change too. Cheers! Have fun. :)

I didn't realize that's why the taxes were so high. It kind of makes sense. I wonder if it's working as far as raising the SIM price goes, though. It doesn't seem like it. Is it better to save up SIM and spend it building up the city rather than selling it? I've sold some of it just to get a little swap.hive, with the reason being that the SIM wasn't enough to buy anything on its own, but I had swap.hive from other sources already, so I just added to that pile by selling a little SIM. I can just let it accumulate and spend it on the game, though.
First Dcity post I read recently which doesn't bash the taxes lol. Keep growing and earning.

It's probably because I just started playing and don't know much about the history of the taxes. haha.
I thought so lol . I guess you never have to bash about taxes on Dcity because @trumpman will be elected president this time . Vote for him for no taxes.

Okay, I just did. If people get alerts when they get voted for, @trumpman might get like 8 of them from me. I didn't know if it was working at first. haha. that was my first vote.
Lol no they don't receive any alerts but thanks for voting :)
