Life on the Frontier - Residents’ Needs in Wild West Pioneers
Howdy, partners!
A good frontier town isn’t just a bunch of buildings - it’s the people living in them. In Wild West Pioneers, your settlers aren’t just numbers on a chart. They have needs, moods, and expectations, and it’s up to you to keep them happy, healthy, and hard at work.
[h3]The basics: what people can’t live without[/h3]
Life out west can be tough. Your townsfolk need a few key things to survive:
Neglect any of these and you’ll see morale drop, work slow, and maybe even people leaving town.
[h3]Whims: the little things that make life worth living[/h3]
Once you’ve got survival locked down, your residents start thinking about more than just staying alive. Whims are small, personal requests - little quality-of-life projects that make folks happier. They won’t keep anyone from dying, but fulfilling them can turn a rough camp into a place people are proud to call home.
[h3]A roof over their heads[/h3]
When new settlers arrive, the first thing they need is somewhere to live. Without a home, they can’t join the workforce, no matter how many jobs are waiting. Plan ahead - growth without housing just leads to frustration for everyone.
[h3]Satisfaction: your town’s mood[/h3]
Every settlement has a Satisfaction score that reflects how content your people are. High satisfaction means a happier, more productive population. Let it drop, and you’ll feel it in every part of town life.
[h3]Prosperity: growth through good living[/h3]
Taking care of your residents earns Prosperity Points, which show the world your town is a great place to be. More prosperity means more people will want to join you, and your settlement will grow faster.
[h3]Don’t forget - homelessness hurts[/h3]
A lack of housing isn’t just inconvenient - it’s a real drag on progress. Homeless residents can’t work, satisfaction drops, and your plans grind to a halt. Out here, shelter is every bit as important as food and water.

In Wild West Pioneers, a thriving town comes from more than just buildings and roads - it’s about the lives of the people living there. Take care of their basic needs, give them reasons to smile, and your little patch of the frontier might just become the most prosperous settlement in the West.
Until next time,

[h3]The basics: what people can’t live without[/h3]
Life out west can be tough. Your townsfolk need a few key things to survive:
- Water - No well or river? No life. A steady supply keeps your people healthy and your town running.
- Food - Hunters, farms, trade… however you get it, make sure no one’s going hungry.
- Health - Illness and injury are part of frontier life, and without care, the population can quickly dwindle.
Neglect any of these and you’ll see morale drop, work slow, and maybe even people leaving town.
