Understand SimCity 2000 health mechanics, including life expectancy (LE) affected by age, medical care, hospitals, and pollution.

This button will display the life expectancy (LE) of Sims based on their age. Naturally, younger Sims who have access to more advanced medical care will have a longer life expectancy than older Sims who had to deal with less-advanced health care. The y-axis will display the LE in years, while the x-axis remains the same as the one in the previous setting. The bracket indicating the work force indicates the average LE of Sims in the work force. LE is affected by the presence of hospitals and other life-affecting variables like pollution.

Tips
  • Ensure you build sufficient hospitals to improve the overall life expectancy of your Sims.
  • Monitor pollution levels, as high pollution negatively impacts Sim life expectancy.
  • Younger Sims generally have a higher potential life expectancy than older Sims.
