Will there be a fix for the Population on PS4?

[Gamer00600]

I have been playing Cities Skylines for a few months now. I was wondering if the developers are going to ever fix the many issues with population for consoles. The new births do not get added into the game as illustrated below.

Over a period of 15 game weeks, with an average of 24 new births per week, my total children has fallen well below 300 to just 6%, teens to 14%, young adults to 18%, adults to 35% and seniors have soared to 27%. The loss of children has created a domino effect, that will inevitably lead to an unwanted/unearned death wave. I do not have the eldercare placed, but do have the childcare. I am doing a slow build with 32 squares of residential per week. I have read that a lifespan is 6 in game years (312 weeks), even if the average lifespan was 100 years, 1 week would be .33 years (though I think its closer to .22 years). Calculating as per the 100 year estimate, there should be 360 children aged from .01 to 5 years old (24*15=360 children, .33*15=5 years), at a minimum. I believe that there should actually be over 1000 citizens in the children bracket.

Also, is the age for a senior about 58 years old? The higher your health budget is, the worse the above gets.

Please fix soon...

Thanks.

It sounds like you're stifling your city. It seems to be you are growing your city size quicker than it can mature. I always play at x3 to cure this issue, otherwise I have to sit idle and let the city mature on it's own while I take a break.

If you're having a deathwave of abandoned buildings from dead not being collected, then you have death care issues. spam them around your city so they can get quick access to dead cims. clumping them together will slow them down.
