Neighborhoods?

[Antonio]

Anyone else plans on grouping the houses together to make a neighborhood? I sure am, gonna have a town street and everything.

 

[sauceisis]

Yes!! I definitely want the villagers to be all together in a little neighborhood area

 

[Brookie]

Yup! I know it's considered too clean and "cliche" to some but I just love the look so much. Plus, I don't want to have random house colors and design messing up the aesthetic of my town. It would be better if there were 2 neighborhoods *away* from everything I want to design.

i wanna format it down a strip like a village!

 

[Circus]

I want to have all of my villagers in one area, then my house on a tiny surrounded by water, only accessible by a bridge. I prefer being isolated from my villagers, in New Leaf they'd always move in right next to me, no matter how much other space was available.

 

[Khaelis]

Only if it fits the area. I like spacing out my villagers, though I do like having Wolfgang and Skye close to me most of the time.

 

[Jhine7]

My town will have its own village with everyone living there, unless I get Apollo!

I rather have my villagers a little spaced out randomly, so no neighborhood for me, but of course, I may change my mind later depending on what map I get and how terraforming will be like. Hopefully we can move villager houses too.

I like my town to be more natural looking, but I am planning on having my houses all in the same area of the map. I'll probably have some kind of pathing for the neighborhood, but probably for not much else.

 

[Mayor-of-Bliss]

All my shops and my homes are going together in a village. I tried to kind of do it in Newleaf. I like having everything in one place.

 

[DJStarstryker]

Yes, I want to do this. I've always had my villagers spread all the way out across the entire town. It would look nice to have a neighborhood feeling. It would also give me more space on the rest of the island to landscape however I want.

 

[Hsn97]

I like having my villagers spaced out in smaller groups of two or three throughout my town. I find it looks more natural than all of them just in a row.

 

[Riley9]

Absolutely! I plan to create a few different little neighborhoods and I'll probably use all 8 character slots to do that. I'm also going to create at least one shopping area and definitely a special area for the museum too.

Edit: I also might create some "fake" shops. For example, if I can manage to get Merengue in my town I'm going to make her house like a little bakery with places to eat outside, etc

 

[Feraligator]

If there's 12 villagers, I'd group all of us into 3s. If there's 10, then probably grouped into 2s in random spots around the town. I like to have things spread out like CF. I have a NL town where my villagers live in a row and I like it, but because the town is small the strip of houses makes the town feel incredibly small.

 

[acornavenue]

I would love to do that!

I wish for this we could start without villagers, look around see it all and then they land after you see your grounds and can plot down their houses

 

[Bluebellie]

Yes ! Me!
I have to start drawing a map to see how the grouping will be done
I did it in new leaf , and I think I?ll also like the organization there to be done in new horizons.

 

[pawprints]

Oh, that’s such a cute idea! I’m not too particular but I’m going to end up putting them all over randomly where they look cute!

 

[moo-kun]

Depends on their backstories...

We all have backstories in my NL town haha so we'll have them in NH too! ☆

 

[Xara]

i think i?d prefer to have my villagers a bit more spaced out - i?m not too keen on the idea of my villagers being clumped together aha

 

[Romaki]

Probably not, I don't like it when the houses are right in front of each other and no place ever seemed wide enough in New Leaf. I think it's more fun to space them all out and give each villager house their own area, maybe pairing two together.
