dCity Daily - Preparing for Nature Disaster

Day 1 of trying to stay in the top 400 of the income rankings and receiving rewards.

Having now worked out how income works (at least I think I have) its time to build my city to protect it from crime and crisis.

There are 6 possible crises that can hit the dCity everyday and the chance of each one grows till it happens, with a maximum chance of 20%, then it resets. Each crisis has a different outcome

Pandemy: 20% of the population is sick and not working (social support cost is increased by 0.4 for every sick citizen).
Fires: Reduce income by 15%.
Riots: Reduce income and popularity by 15%.
Economy crisis: Reduce income by 50%.
Power Outage: Reduce income by 25%.
Nature Disaster: Reduce income and popularity by 15%

On the current crisis scale we are most likely to be hit by a nature disaster, a 20% chance of this happening today. So what can we do to prepare ourselves and keep our place in the top 400 rankings?

My current city stats look like this:

So a popularity of 335, if a nature disaster was to hit this would reduce my popularity to 285.

Popularity gives a population bonus of ( popularity ^ 0.6 ) * 100, which in my city currently would be 33% and reduced to 30% if a nature disaster occurs.

The overall effect of this would be to reduce my population from 595 to 582 a reduction of 13, luckily I have a few more than that currently unemployed at present so I don't see that this would effect my income and I'm not in the top 400 for popularity yet so that wouldn't effect any rewards.

My current base income is 434 so a reduction in this of 15% would make it 368 which still keeps me in a positive position even if a crime happened (currently 18% chance daily) but could put me at an income of 68 if a car dealership was to be robbed (-300 income) so would reduce my income to 68 sim from the current tax refund of 94 sim.

So unless we get hit by multiple crisis I think we should manage to stay in the rewards for tomorrow...

From my current understanding my major problem is the chance of crime so todays spending has been directed at that:-

I also claimed a young citizen from the discord channel for being in the top 400 rankings which increases my tax refund to 105.

Finished the day like this and hoping that the crime reduction strategy helps and providing we dont see multiple crisis events the additional popularity and population should keep me in the top 400

I'm still very much learning dCity as i go along so if you notice anything incorrect or have some tips let me know in the comments
