Politician Archive

I was wondering about the exact procedure used to determine when a city will grow from one size to another. I have 2 scenarios here. I would like to know which of these is the correct method. If neither of these is correct I would like to knowthe correct method.

Scenario 1:
A city will only grow from an outpost to a village if you can get 20 citizens to place their homes and declare residence within 150m of the city hall. If they are not within 150m they are not counted towards the 20 citizens needs for a village.

Scenario 2:
The city has 10 citizens within 150m and 10 other declared residencesfrom 150m-200m. The 10 just outside allows the outpost to advance to a village.

I fear the proper method is the first. This would make it VERY hard to get to a larger city as you would need to cram the needed people in the arearequired for theold size. The city hall is not small and uses up a lot of space. Any PA halls or other buildings will waste more space.

Thanks in advance for any useful information.
