They should either bring this back or just have an option on the map in the NookPhone to show villager icons. If they're in a building, their icon will just be on top of that building.
Bea was sooooo cute and I honestly don't understand why she's not more popular. She's just as cute as Goldie. I couldn't invite her though because I had 2 normals already and I don't like having 3 of the same personality :(
I spread out my villagers at first because I was lazy but now I'm kind of happy that I did it because some residential areas are so cramped and gridlike. Also, some of them make it look like the villagers are living in government funded housing because they have like no space and all the houses...
