What Causes the Not Enough Customers Issue?
The core of this issue comes from your commercial or residential districts. Or it could be a mix of both. What the Not Enough Customers issue means is that the shops in the commercial areas aren’t getting enough customers. This results in lower profit for your city. And it could be due to:
- Too many commercial areas.
- Commercial areas are too far from residential areas.
- Lack of transportation to commercial areas.

To fix the Not Enough Customers issue, you’ll need to use this map to determine if you need to add residential areas around the commercial ones that are struggling. Or if your population is on the smaller side, it might be best to demolish some of your commercial areas.
High density residential zones tend to have the most potential customers, so you might want to rezone sections of your city to capitalize on that. While your city is still growing, limit the commercial areas, and put them near high density zones when the option is available. This means you’ll also want parking lots in the area and plenty of transportation options as well so that the customers can access commercial areas easily. As a result, you should see the Not Enough Customers issue go away.
