Should I keep this Map?

I'm so happy you found one you like! Seems like it fits basically all your requirements which is awesome! I think it looks really nice too. I also have a little strip of land in the top right corner that I use for the campsite and I actually really like that location for it. I'm jealous that your Retail is so close to the Train Station - my map would be my absolute dream map if my Town hall and Retail locations were switched.

I'd probably put a house either around where you're standing on the map in the pic or by the waterfall across from Whitney. I like living by the river though, some people prefer to be by the beach or surrounded by grass for a garden. Have fun in your new town!

Thank you! I was almost at my wit's end when I found this map haha so happy I didn't settle earlier. Yes! The little strip is the best for the campsite in my opinion, any town I've ever had has had a small strip and I've always put my campsite there. It keeps it out of the way and I've never regretted the decision to put it there. I also think it might be roomy enough to add some fitting pwps and lots of trees by the campsite as well. I'm so happy my retail ended up there too, that was something I really wanted.

I ended up putting my house on the left side a little above the beach entrance in between the beach and river. :3 I like the sound of waves in my house and usually leave one room alone just so I can hear the waves ^_^ Plus I like having quite a bit of space underneath my house for a long path and fountain usually so I wanted to make sure I had room for that. I almost put it where you suggested though!

I love your new map! So happy for you that you didn't give up. South facing is awesome, I love the plaza and town hall being surrounded by water, and you can't beat perfect apples.
