Mapping Help T_T I need advice

[Aliuvial]

I am so stuck.. I have no idea what to do. I am happy with my main street sort of area above the airport and the camping area.. My Zen area I love up by the funny shaped pond with the path.. But not at all happy with my house area and my villager area. I am kind of thinking of making the villagers raised up but again not sure about anything and it sucks!

Any tips would be welcomed because.. I am very much stuck..

The most annoying part will be moving all of the villagers while I work then moving them all back haha I think I will just get rid of the river above the stores so that way I can move them all there while I lift the lands..

Possible Raised Up Area

I think I would like the river following the cliff edge to meet up with the exit at the bottom

i wonder how it would look if your villager geography was like this: (lightest green being highest grass cliff layer, second second, dark first)

or just something to play on the idea of having them all lined up like so - in layers and levels, maybe a waterway around them all? turn it into venice? haha. or even maybe having rivers run off from the existing middle cliff/river in the center in between each layer of the houses? not sure how much stuff you have around them. anyways, i really love your main street and the clean corners, i think it has a lot of potential, don't give up!

Hmm... that is kind of cool like one row of villgers being highest, second the next level down.. and then the last on the lowest level..Hmmmm I like your ideas I will take them into my idea brain and store them for later..
