SimCity 4 police buildings

Better buildings require more maintenance: a police kiosk may require only a few hundred simoleons per month while the deluxe, chopper equipped police station may set you back a hundred grand a month

RDex-Nov

This city hall is a government building and therefore requires maintenance.

Disasters like these do not cost any simoleon to start with. However, the recovery may set you back quite a bit...

The Simoleon Simoleon icon 15px is a basic unit of monetary measure in all SimCity games since SimCity 3000, symbolized by the section sign (§). Simoleons can be used in three main ways, to maintain the city, to pay off debts, and to make purchases. Simoleons can be obtained by taxes and business deals, such as the GigaMall in SimCity 3000.

In games prior to SimCity 3000, a generic dollar sign ($) is used for monetary amounts.

Better buildings requires more simoleons, and later on, the player will need to invest money in certain areas, such as population growth, in order to obtain certain buildings.

If the level of simoleons goes into the 'red' (in debt), the player may need to take out a loan. The finance advisor will also offer business deal buildings if the player goes into debt. Going too deep in debt in SimCity 4 can also result in the mayor being booted out of office.
