Education reduces crime, ground pollution, fire risk, waste and sickness. Educated Sims are more likely to recycle and consume less water and power. Although schools generate no revenue, they increase the happiness and education levels of your residence. Educated Sims increase the tech levels of your industrial buildings.

  • Your Sims will go to the school closest to their residences. There is no need to build every educational structure.

Cities can specialize in Education and attract students from other cities in the region.

Great Works such as the Space Center and Solar Farm require various education structures and upgrades.
