When playing city building simulation games like Sid Meier’s Civilization VI, you can’t just place your first city in some area wherever you want. You have to take into account if the resources nearby make placing a city here viable, as well as if you have great defenses and such. The first city is your first step in conquering the world, and having a misstep as your first step can prove fatal in the long run. That’s why in this guide, we will show you where you can settle your first city.
Where To Settle First City? – Sid Meier’s Civilization VI
Plains (Hills) is the best area to settle your city
When you first start, you need to look for the Plains (Hills) terrain. Why? Because this terrain has great stats. Most areas would only allow two Food and one Production, sometimes the opposite. But in Plains (Hills), the terrain will give you two Food and two Production. While it may not seem like much at first, having one more Production will prove beneficial in the long run.
