Can you change the mayor of your town?

[sheepyton]

So this may be a silly question, but I wanted to make the mayor of my town a different character and delete my main character. I realized that I kind of don't like where my house is situated and would also like to rename her. Does anyone know if this is possible? I don't want to reset my town because I have a few villagers that I adore.

I'm pretty sure you can't I haven't tryed. I don't want to tell you wrong info., so maybe a second Opinion would be well here. But unless you are to restart I don't think you can delete your Mayor Character.

Unfortunately no. The mayor is the mayor and the only way to change it is by resetting.

I tried doing it with a different character because I hated my mayors face. It didn't work so I had to reset.

I know you can demolish your house, I'm wondering if that's the same thing. Also, if I did that would I lose my catalog and bells? I'm not sure...

Hmm, second question I guess then: Can you demolish your house and still keep your catalog/storage/bells?

If you try to delete the mayor's home, Isabelle will just tell you to delete your town..I've tried it, and it's so disappointing. :c so yeah, you'd lose everything unless a friend held it for you.

Boo, I was afraid that was the case. Ah well, I'm too attached with my villagers to delete it, and I don't know anyone willing to hold anyone and TT so I can get them back quickly. Such is life.
