*buildings that pollute lower land values
*poluted areas will NEVER have more than low land values
*if you want to lower polution and raise values,make lots of parks
*if you mix commercial,residential,public and big parks(small are cheap but dont do its work well),you will get best land values in no time
*the map center have higher land values than the corners, so make trash,industry and power plants there and residential and commerce in the center
