Extra Large Moving Population Truck

Bonus Population (officially called Population Upgrade) increases population of existing residences.

When collecting rents from houses, there's a chance that population truck will drop, provided that your citizens are happy. How this chance is calculated is unknown.

On March 12, 2012 a +20 Population option was added to the Gifts menu.

There are four types of Population Trucks distinguished on the basis of the amount of bonus population each gives.

During Halloween (2011), monster housing dropped purple population trucks. > > > > > > > > > >

From December 22-25, 2011, CityVille increased the chances to earn more Population by 50%.

the monster population drop truck is very rare :(

your citizens must be yellow or green for it to drop. it won't drop if its blue.

August 24, 2011 by NotTheCar
I am starting to think that your citizen's need to be happy for this to drop at all. My citizens are unhappy, I am like 42k /47k....so I am building more community buildings to help with that and will see if it makes a difference or not.

August 11, 2011 by A Wikia contributor

they need to be at least unhappy (yellow face).

August 23, 2011 by A Wikia contributor

drop rate of these trucks have been significantly increased, about 3-40% chance per click That's a good news

July 13, 2011 by A Wikia contributor
I haven't gotten a truck in probably a month now, so I have given up on them. After a couple weeks of just looting houses and getting nothing I said screw it. I'm not sure what is going on.

July 11, 2011 by A Wikia contributor

your citizens must be happy

July 12, 2011 by A Wikia contributor

haven't gotten a truck in days....something's wrong

July 8, 2011 by A Wikia contributor
Does anyone know the drop rate for these? They seem to be getting farther and farther between...

July 5, 2011 by A Wikia contributor
when I collected rent from my Bay Point Duplexes, I got 2 trucks that +40 pop. But after that I've got disconnected and when I log in again, it's happened like I didn't collect anything from previous session And when I collected those houses again, I got exactly 2 trucks from 2 houses that dropped those trucks before So I started to think, these truck are not really random drop at all, but somehow drop in sequence

June 17, 2011 by A Wikia contributor
It's not happening anymore.

June 14, 2011 by A Wikia contributor

It happens randomly.

history

by point duplex 470/470 on five of them already i have 30 total none of which are below 300

June 7, 2011 by A Wikia contributor
I managed to fill 14 Bay point duplexes out of 26. The same none of them are below 300. Also filled a skycraper condo (620). If u collect often the chances to get truck is better.

June 9, 2011 by A Wikia contributor
glass condo here 700/700... I collect rent on the garden mansion more than any other housing but they don't send out trucks at all....

Mushroom Bay Point Duplex - 1880/1880

November 6, 2011 by BigMacsAreAwesome

I'm removing chances, not sure about them.

May 13, 2011 by Mihapro

i think 1/25 was pretty acurate its probably something thats randomized for each house but it works out with a large number of buildings to be about one in 25

June 7, 2011 by A Wikia contributor

i just get one time..my Midtown Apartment..i get 60bonus Pop..

May 13, 2011 by A Wikia contributor
Oh,no... I had clicked the housing... But I did't get any truck during 5 days!!! I tried to click the housing hundred more per day... I had never got the truck...!!! What happen??

May 12, 2011 by A Wikia contributor

Nothing? Works for me. In average I get 1 bonus per 25 rents... Make sure you have some better houses not cozy cottages.

May 12, 2011 by Mihapro
I have several housing....Every house was nothing~~!!!!

May 12, 2011 by A Wikia contributor
I get 1 bonus per 100 rents .. what can I do? My citizens are happy :D

June 2, 2011 by A Wikia contributor
chance is arround 3% ... buildings with initial population of 310 or above have better chances of receiving a bonus population

June 2, 2011 by Mihapro
The chance on TV Terrace residences is about 8-10% or better. I needed to boost population by 1K pretty quick and those houses have a 5 minute timer on them. I was able to max population on four of TV Terraces with less than 50 collections on each house. Each house maxed at 33, 42, 41 and 49 collections.

June 6, 2011 by A Wikia contributor
