Do you guys mostly use underground wires? And are they actually worth it and useful? Just making sure.

Alright. Because I'm planning to buy Underground wires so I can expand my city. Because the wires are simply getting in the way, and I can connect wires to more buildings via underground.

they look better, but if you zone off an area, or place a bunch of buildings, you don't need to run wires through all of them, just water

If you really want to be realistic. Use the above-ground wires and place them between every like 5 houses then run the wires behind the houses. It adds a really realistic feel. For more dense areas like downtown areas, use the underground wires as that's where they are used the most. And another thing with the underground wires is if you want a modern neighborhood, run wires under each individual house. Add's the realistic feel to it even though you can't see it, and yes, this does go for the piping, but the pipes you can just run in a straight line under many houses at once. Have fun! Engineer. Yes I am an Architect because my creativity is terrible.

But the above-ground wires definitely adds a realistic feeling.

#

I may add some going to the left and right side of Residential houses & buildings..

They aren't as common where I live.

While yes we run off of complete green energy according to my knowledge.

We still use above ground wires even in the city, but the closer you get to downtown, you see less and less of them.
