To increase your town’s population:

  1. Build community buildings.
  2. These don’t add residents directly but instead raise your population cap — the maximum number of residents your town can have.

  3. Build houses.

  4. Houses add residents and fill the available population cap.

In the top-left corner of the screen, you can see information about your town’s population:

  • Population — the current number of residents.

  • Population cap — the maximum number of residents allowed at the moment.

The population cap increases by building community buildings, which become available as you progress through levels.

👥 First expand the cap with community buildings, then grow your population by building houses!
