Is anyone else's Resident Services very close to their airport?

I like having the Town Hall be far up and away. It makes the airport area more open and freeing, less cluttered. It also allows you to better decorate the plaza.

Still wish we could move it though because the ultimate super power in island designing would be moving RS anywhere on the map.

yeah mine is close the the airport as well. but it does allow you to make a great walk way up to resident services. I change mine up every season

Mine is fairly close to the airport, but it doesn't make the island seem cluttered or anything. I need a very specific map layout for what I want to do with terraforming, and it just so happens that this layout has it pretty close. Hurawalhi's river is a big spiral, so the airport and the building are separated by water, which makes it seem less claustrophobic.

A tip for those that have an airport super close to resident services is to consider that visitors to your island are going to arrive in both places; when you visit through dream adresses you arrive at the resident services. So you could make them both into an area entrance, and design something around both of them. For me, most people except 2 friends are most likely going to visit through dream adresses so I wouldn't mind too much to have them closer together, leave more room inland for where I would like to decorate, that said mine is a little distance apart at least.

My resident services is right in the middle of my island and lines up perfectly with my airport. Only thing is I have a lot of space between and I have changed the design so many times I can not count. I kind of wish I choose a map that had the resident area closer so I wouldn't have to decorate that big area so much.

My Resident Services is reasonably close. I have a touristic island thats still in the works so I'm trying to get every building close to the airport. My museum is the closest to the airport but thats because I felt that since it has an aquarium it should be near water.

My one is close like that. I used to have a little plaza (as shown on map) but I recently changed it to a moat.

I wish I could catapult my resident service building and isabelle off the dang map. It's such a useless building imo. Like why is it such a large building yet all you do is change a flag, tune, or listen to isabelle crap on your island because you have too many trees or not enough stupid fences. ugh i hate that building lol
