Post Your Town Map

My town is divided straight across by the river in a (-u-i ) <---shape like that sort of. I took the first map I got, and I'm glad I did. I don't get picky about "the perfect town layout". I learn to love each animal crossing town in time.
 
I'd really like opinions on this map, I am having the toughest time making a decision on whether or not to keep it.
I bought a second copy(digital this time), and I am set on having a map I think is perfect.

I really do love this one -- the river shape is extraordinarily straight, there's no stray ponds in the way, Re-Tail is a straight shoot from the docks, the town hall location is lovely, the town fruit is apples(the only one I would accept) and there is plenty of space for public work projects(the thing I care most about).
Here is the issue, though. My absolute least favorite villagers are here. Harry, Marcie, Rod, Simon, and Violet. I think they're all awful, with the exception of Violet, who is in my other town as it is.

Here's the map. I'm wondering if you guys think I should keep it, or keep resetting? I'm afraid I'll get caught in a loop if I don't settle for something soon, but I'm so tempted at the idea I could reset a few more times and get an even better one with villagers I love.

If I were to pick out flaws, the only one I can think of is that there's some tight space at the upper left I don't think I could use. However, that's such a minor flaw and I'm just so picky it's very hard to know if I'll regret not picking it later.

Any opinions would be very, very appreciated.


My first town I loved the layout of, everything was perfect except the villagers. I hardly ever play it, but villager interaction is one of the biggest things in the game for me. And you can keep that town and use the resetting new characters to control villagers trick to get 5 good villagers. - I didn't discover this until my town had 9 villagers I didn't like. So don't be too thrown by this. - I'm probably too late in responding to affect your choice there though.

I do really like this town map though. It's weird in that it has more open space in the smallest part of the town. - normally it's all offcut routes on the smaller side. ~ like mine is. I'll post a picture of both my towns later, now I've actually done some stuff with them. xP

Fruit: cherries... Actually my second file and both time same town fruit and same foreign fruit from Isabelle...
Grass: square
Tries: 50+

I really like that my town square is at the center of the map, as I can align fountains with the town tree since they are both 3x3, unlike bridges...

Finally after over a month of resetting and numerous attempts to settle for a town I didn't really like, I finally have a map I'm happy with!

It has pretty much all the criteria I wanted:
- Circle grass
- Apples (I love the look of the perfect apples!)
- Green station and town hall
- River around the tree
- Vertical south-facing ramp
- Re-tail close to docks (I'm always on the island)
- Plenty of space for PWP (I would have liked a few more ponds but hey..)
- A pathetic private beach :p (I wasn't too fussed about this but it makes me laugh that it's so small!)
- Bump in the beach
- Long beach for fishing (I don't like it when it's cut in half)
- River doesn't flow uphill

I restarted hundreds (maybe even thousands) of times so I'm so happy I can finally start enjoying the game! (even if it is a month after the release!)

I love your layout! It's perfect for me. I love the perfect apples but, unfortunately, ever since I got my first town I've always had cherries. :( I'm either going to keep restarting until I get apples or only keep it without them if my villagers are amazing. *Sigh...* That might take a while.
Anyway, I'm jealous of your layout. I hope to have good luck with mine!

Welcome to Termina!
I'm not a very big fan of my map, it was the first one given to me and I just wanted to get started and I thought the map was fine so I just stuck with it. But now I feel like I don't have much room for stuff.
Joey is the one that looks like his house is on top of mine, but he's cool so I'm okay with him being there.

The map is actually flipped because of my computer's camera but otherwise, that's my map.

Here's my town map!! I love where the three houses are on the top right, but I don't like the villagers in them..
Big Top, Victoria and Rocket. T_T Rocket is moving out tomorrow.
Also, my favourite neighbour, Marshall, lives next door to me!! >w<
 
One of the middle house will disappear: Lucky is moving. But for the rest...

Oh, and funny things... the river layout is close to the Sarine's Layout in Fribourg...

Fruit: Apple
Mayor: Midori
Town: Fri♭ou♪g

I ended up keeping the map I posted earlier, and I am very happy I did.

I didn't like any of my villagers before, but I now have Julian, Vesta, Bruce, and I am expecting Pashmina tomorrow. I also like how all of their houses are in a neighborhood on the lower half, so I can reserve the upper half for PWPs.

I'm in love with my Mayor character's house placement in the corner there! I don't have any idea where I'm putting my campsite and I'm deathly afraid of placing it somewhere poor, but if anyone has any suggestions, I'd like to hear them.

I love my new town's layout -3-
The plaza is perfectly placed.
Got a nice river.
Easy access to retail.
Easy access to the dock/beach.
A nice little corner for my house.
Plus cherries as a native fruit!

I was bummed that I had to restart, but I'm glad I did since I got this map! :D
 
I got my third bridge yesterday, so this is my current map:

The northwest part of town is the cool part of town; three of my four favorite animals live there (Aurora, Big Top, Molly). Rolf is the odd one out, he lives over by the campsite. All of the villagers I don't like live in the lower half of town.
 
Um... uh .w.

First AC game, so I think I goofed with my layout. but I can't find the heart to reset. At least, not yet. Is it a bad map? Because I'm finding it difficult to find a place to put my police station. Any suggestions? .w.

Well I think it's a cool-looking map, but there does seem to be a bit of a lack of space. x.x
