Plan, build, and develop a small town into a major metropolis. Use hex-shaped building tiles to add residential, commercial, civic, and industrial areas, as well as special points of interest that provide benefits and take advantage of the resources of nearby towns. Your goal is to have your borough thrive and end up with a greater population than any of your opponents.
Suburbia is a tile-laying game in which each player tries to build up an economic engine and infrastructure that will be initially self-sufficient, and eventually become both profitable and encourage population growth. As your town grows, you'll modify both your income and your reputation. As your income increases, you'll have more cash on hand to purchase better and more valuable buildings, such as an international airport or a high rise office building. As your reputation increases, you'll gain more and more population (and the winner at the end of the game is the player with the largest population).
During each game, players compete for several unique goals that offer an additional population boost – and the buildings available in each game vary, so you'll never play the same game twice!

I love this game and it's a favourite within our group. Everyone ends up building a totally different suburb and the tile drafting gets quite competitive at 3 and 4 players.
The only problem I have found is the drastic swinging of points from goals, especially the hidden personal ones, in the end of game scoring. The public goals are fun to try to achieve and block others from achieving, so we just remove the personal goals and add more public ones instead.
All around very fun game that I'm always happy to bring to the table.
