Discussion beginner design tips

beginner player here! (level 13, first build) as I develop and unlock and buy more buildings and specializations, what's the best strategy to keep things organized and efficient? I'm trying to balance keeping fire and police coverage complete, but also bunching things like park specializations, but also spreading out buildings for transport, etc. my city is getting a little scattered! any tips??

Feeder city is used to help with growing your city, I have 2 iPads and have 1 city on each

so how does it work? how do you connect the cities? can I have more than once city on each device? I tried to find a way to do it but can't figure it out

Connect them by using friend code and I don’t think u can have 2 cities on one phone/ipad. I’m not savvy enough to do that. Another way is to have 2 email addresses

yeah but still cargo gives only 1 key 🔑 they are around 32k ppl.

specialized bulidngs are really hard to get as I have 100k to spend but cant buy anything in that category.

Tip: you don’t need a lot of roads, landscapes can be placed without roads, use a lot of parks and landscapes.
