Upvote for making a great city planning game. This could teach the young generation the importance of good city planning for the economy, the environment and the well-being of people. The architectural uprising is just as much about city planning as beautiful architecture. Human friendly towns is good for business, saves the municipalities money and increases quality of life. Ideally people should be paid to live in cities. Disclaimer, I am the chairman of the Norwegian architectural uprising.
Looking at the political situation around the world, I think learning should not stop at a certain age. I'm pretty sure even the "older" generation can learn from this. People that grew up with SimCity are now in their forties and fifties, and some never quit gaming at all.

Just make it actually cheaper than the suburbs and you'll have more people.
...who in turn will create demand driving prices up.
I'm 100% with you on this, as I spent close to an hour in traffic yesterday driving into the city during the afternoon rush hour, but transport is so much cheaper than real estate, that plenty of people are actually stuck outside big cities.
