As a relatively inexperienced AC player, i decided to post on here to get feedback on my town layout. the river's isolated on the western side of the land, leaving a very thin strip of land between the river and the west bound. i was wondering if anyone thought this might be a problem later for laying out my town. i dont have a problem resetting so its not a big deal if it really sucks just wanted opinions...thanks.:)

I really like your layout.
But if you're going to lay paths, there may be a bit of trouble doing that with that thin strip of land.
Also, I prefer beaches on the west side, but it's up to you in the end. Personal preference!
But yeah, I do like your layout a lot. I may not choose it for my self, but it's still great nonetheless.
 
I'd reset because that tiny strip of land would really annoy me but other than that it isn't too bad of a layout.
 
Every time I've seen layouts with tiny bits of land like that, they're always really undeveloped compared to the main chunk of land. Like no pwps or paths, or maybe just villager houses. I personally like my river winding through town, it gives the town a more natural feeling and a more winding layout. But if you'd rather not build around your river, your layout is fine.
 
I love your layout, I think you should keep it.! ;o
I don't see how that thin strip of land can cause problems, you've got plenty of space on the right side of the river but obviously it all comes down to what you personally want.
 
It's just fine. I like a longer, more winding river because almost my entire income comes from fishing. On the flipside, for that same reason I'm a fan of long beaches, like yours.

The authority on what makes a town "good" should be you. If you like your layout the way it is, don't reset just because some other schmuck thinks otherwise.
 
I actually think its cool how the river runs so close to the cliff, usually you don't see that. Just sort of unique, however not the most fun with paths xD Provides some cool little places to have a house though.
 
Yeah, I think it's great because the river only affects 1/3 of the town, the rest is open. I love it.
 
I like towns that have retail and town hall close together and I'm not a fan of "S" shaped rivers.
 
I would love that layout omggg I would find that tiny strip of land cute :} also it reminds me of WW/CF :P

I like my own layout but it's kinda annoying because it actually makes my town smaller.. oh well :P
 
I like that you have the 'hidden' beach which you need to swim to get to :( I wish I had that, although, I'm not going to reset over a small thing like that (that's just me hehe).

Oh yeah overall I think it's a pretty good layout and I don't see a huge deal about the small strip of land unless you want to put down a wide path or something.
 
I always like when someone has a small strip of land like that. But personally I wouldn't like a map with such a large space of land as that, because I usually use the winding river as a guide for where to put stuff.

If you're worried about paths, you could always get a new pattern that just uses one tile for that bit, if your using a path that takes up three or two spaces.
