I say restart. I did, and it was the best ever. I was super far, had lots of things done, tons of money went into things, but I wasn't happy with my house placement, and people weren't moving in or out, and I was not interested in playing as much. I restarted and found a town I loved, house placement I loved, and I started the date at the end of june and just played each day like 45 mins to work up to the actual date and i've gotten things back, like, kicks, and up grades. If you want, i'd hold anything you wanted in my town. you could put it on the ground and i'd keep the gates closed till you got done and were ready for it back. I had my friend hold stuff and it was nice. since you could keep some rare things like the DLC items c:
Restart it. If you're not happy with it now, you never will be.
"I dislike my house placement" - This is a huge problem. The mayors house placement is everything. You want your house to be in a place that you really love, and enjoy. I recommend making sure that there is space on all sides, especially in the front. I made the mistake, in my first town, of putting my house right against the cliff. Then I couldn't plant trees, flowers, or bushes to accent my home. But in my new town, I have plenty of space and it's amazing.
"I don't really care for my villagers" - I know a lot of people say this 'doesn't matter', because villagers will eventually move out. This is true, however; sometimes it can take a very long time. If you can't tolerate them, why bother trying.
"I want the classic police station instead of the modern one" - This is huge as well. The Police Station is important, and if I'm not mistaken, you can't tear it down after building it. So if you have the wrong model, it can screw up the look and feel of your entire town.
"There's a lot of grass wear because of my lack of planning" - Flowers can help regrow grass, but again. This is a big problem. I truly recommend that you restart. And instead of building PWP's and houses in the spur of the moment, write it down in a notebook somewhere and think about it for a little while. Give it time.
"The museum donations, the fish/insects I've caught" - If you restart now, all you'll miss is the last 5 or 6 bugs/fish from June. Which is fine. Amazing, actually. This gives you a solid fact that you'll be able to continue to let your museum grow for a year, instead of finishing it in a couple of months. This isn't that big of a deal if you think about it, really.
"Badges" - Earning badges is a difficult and rewarding experience, but how can you have fun earning them in a town you dislike? I think you'll enjoy re-earning them in your new town. That is, if you decide to restart.
"Emotions" - It will take a while to get Club Lol and the emotions back, yes. But what's wrong with using classic smiley's for a bit?
"Catalog T__T" - There are tons of members on here that are sweet enough to let you catalog items. If you do end up restarting, remember to buy out Ables & Nooklings everyday. Tons of cataloging can come from this, easily.
"Public Works T__T" - This is about the only thing that should stop you from restarting. It does take a while, waiting for villagers to request things, but again. If you hate the layout, why bother putting more PWP's down? How much better would you feel in an amazing town, knowing where each PWP should go, and knowing that you love the way they look in your beautiful new village?
"The wasted bells in expanding my home, and everything I've bought" - There's always the Stalk Market, kind users, and Beetles.
"HHA won't have any houses in it" - Eventually, the Nintendo homes should start re-appearing again. If not, who cares? At least you have a town that you love.
In a nutshell, I truly, strongly believe you should restart. I kept a town I disliked for weeks, thinking that the more PWP's and flowers that I'd add would make it less unappealing, but it never worked. The layout wasn't for me. And sometimes that happens. There's no shame in restarting.

I really don't know whether to aswelli don't want to get stuck in that rut of constantly resetting/restarting again and again as happened in previous games :/
i dont like where my campsite is, and im not even sure i like the campsite, i do like my villagers, but theres many more id much rather have such as Vesta, who i could get as an original villager
but i dont want to lose my bells, my throne, rococo furniture, villager pics, the fish and insects and paintings :/ and live to regret it all, i could give them to people for storage but id be so paranoid haha
Its a MUCH harder decision to reset in this game than previous ones, the shops take so long to unlock etc
plus i destroyed my island cutting down bushes etc and i regret that
Also in Wild world, i made it so i had a picture of every villager who lived in my town, before letting them leave, i didnt do this in NL and its bugged me
Such a difficult decision ah

I think I would restart if I were you. If so much is bugging you, it will continue to bug you until you restart. Plus, I'm starting over on Monday as the earliest date, and you won't be alone. c: There are lots of people kind enough to let you catch back up again as well.
Believe me, I don't want to keep restarting like I did in previous games too, but eventually you'll find the perfect town and I think that'll be it. It hasn't happened to me yet, but I'm sure it will happen eventually!
About your campsite - like I mentioned, that will bug you forever unless you can put it somewhere else. Can you demolish it? If not, that's another reason to restart. Also, about losing your Bells and your furniture - that's a tough thing about restarting. But if you want to take the risk, go ahead! You can Time Travel to catch up, but either way you'll get everything eventually - and possibly Vesta as well!
And the last thing; that bugged me on my former town too. I wanted to have everyone's picture, so I restarted. That's another thing that will bug you. But it's really up to you! My words, though, would be to restart. After all, you might find a layout and villagers you love!
I hope I helped! Good luck with your decision!
Last night I was holding my town in contempt after visiting a friend's place. What I did instead of restarting was I removed the bridge that was next to my house (the original bridge) and began to chop down trees and ultimately change the feel of the town completely. I always used the original bridge to travel back and forth and rarely used the second bridge I installed. Now, being forced to use that bridge gives my town a completely different feel. Because you can "time travel" restarting is not really an issue, but I personally feel like I would be cheating myself and the game if I did it. I feel like I have some silly ethical obligation to make the best of the situation.

I restarted and the trouble is, once you do it you get tempted to do it any time you get fed up of your town. I was like it with WW - I constantly restarted until it got to the point where I got bored of playing.
I'm not 100% happy with my town but I'm forcing myself to make the best of it, I hate doing that beginning part of the game over and over.

You are all WAY too serious, no offense of course, to each their own. I was happy with my map, my house is smack dab in the middle. If I get bored, I make a new character. I like my villagers but I don't really care if they move too much and my grass grew back fairly quickly when the snow came.
I've played AC for 400 hours and I'd never delete my town for any reason.

Find someone to hold your items for you and you'll have every item you had before. (I'd restart my town)
