Cities: Skylines - The American Dream #3 - Defiant inner-city suburb

In episode #3, we extend Crescent to the north, building the historical primarily black middle-class suburb 'Carter'. Carter is a bit unique in the sense that despite being among the inner-city layer of blue-collar suburbs that where usually very prone to decay during post-WWII de-industrialization, white flight and suburbanization, it has in fact remained a decent middle-class neighbourhood throughout the hardships of Crescent.

One important factor in this has been the continuous resilience of the local community, which organized efforts to curb rising crime rates and overall deterioration of similar mainly blue-collar inner-city suburbs.

Carter was perceived almost as a natural extension of Downtown before the Interstate system separated the two in the 1960's and 1970's. Today it is a mix of detached houses, old mid-rise commercial, small pockets of row-houses and industry/manufacturing. It also has a church, an elementary school and a high school as well as several relatively modern residential developments.

The American Dream follows the city of Crescent, a big, sprawling, segregated and troubled city located along the Atlantic shore of the state of Georgia, USA - south of Savannah, GA, and north of Jacksonville, FL. The series depicts a city desperate for inner-city revitalization, crime reduction, urban investments & infrastructure upgrades. Loss of industry, manufacturing jobs and the subsequent white flight, as well as a race riot, took a heavy toll on much of the urban core of Crescent.

The Crescent City Council will be the main catalyst for change, and consists of all those of you willing to take part in the coming votes and thereby help shape the city and it's prospects.
