So I haven't seen any articles discussing the pollution data we've already seen now, on day 3146. I did some legwork and compiled a spreadsheet of all currently held US regions, their region bonuses and pollution data.
*PLEASE NOTE* This data is subject to change each day as work tickets generated fluctuate, and citizens create or move companies between holding companies in different regions. This data represents the first draft of available data, as of day 3146.
You can view the raw spreadsheet here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1r9zuplRzak76ndNht0afkATBB8MEP_t6mHaYzIn_lEY/edit?usp=sharing
Based on this information, here are the break-even regions (0% bonus, 0% pollution in all industries.) These are the ideal spots for citizens looking for low-risk standard productivity (output should come out the same as pre-resource wars, based on the 100% national bonus in all industries but aircraft.)
- Delaware
- Illinois
- Kansas
- Louisiana
- Louth** [occupied region]
- Maine
- Maryland
- Massachusetts
- Minnesota
- Mississippi
- Montana
- New Hampshire
- North Carolina
- Pennsylvania
- Rhode Island
- South Carolina
- Tennessee
- West Virginia
- Wyoming
Here are the positive-production regions, listed by industry/quality:
Food Raw: California, Cork**, District of Columbia, Iowa, Michigan, Nebraska, Nevada, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota
Food Q1: California, Cork**, District of Columbia, Iowa, Michigan, Nevada, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota

House Q5: Washington
Aircraft (none)
Some closing thoughts:
- While building in positive-production regions is tempting, make sure you evaluate all industries in which you own a company (unless you can afford multiple holding companies and the travel back and forth each day for MW.)
- Also keep in mind that high-production regions are more likely to attract more companies, and could easily turn into negative-production due to pollution.
- When choosing a region for lower-quality companies, be thinking forward; are you going to be upgrading your company in the future? If so, how is that region's production for those higher-quality industries? You won't be able to relocate that company once you upgrade it without a cost.
- Be careful about locating in occupied regions and border regions with frequent conflict.. This could cause problems traveling between regions for MW, and potentially affect your work tax negatively.

Thanks, that's some useful stats.
The whole world is stuffed for Q7 weapons and WRM production. I don't know if this is a way to reign in over production, or a misguided attempt at trying to get players to use things other than Q7 weapons...
Houses are neither here nor there. Salaries and market prices will adjust to reflect actual production.
Food, well... It complicates things when low quality food gets screwed. Nobody loves Q4 food, even though it's almost always the best energy per CC. Go figure?
By breaking the usage of Q7 tanks will now pave the way for the airplanes, in turn players buy lots of gold to quickly set-up plane factories coming. Win by Plato.
I haven't yet paid full attention but I am assuming the planes will give a way for people to fight from their own country to another country without having a MPP present thus taking the use of moving tickets down (excluding the WaM factor in using tickets)
I am generally a cynic, so this line of thinking wouldn't surprise me at all lol
I don't know they had any plan to make some targeted change, or if this was just a "throw a wrench in, because things are too stale" strategy... It is unfortunate that this is going to have the most negative impact on new(er) players that get sucked towards the capitol and maybe don't pay enough attention to understand or seek out pollution data before starting their first companies.
can i bribe you to put florida on the list of do not put q6 food companies there ?
lol, tempting, but it doesn't seem like you're in much danger there anyways.
Voted.

I checked Virginia' pollution #'s, and did not see any. I went to county and then then society page, clicked Va. Did I go about it the wrong way?
no you did it right, virginia is currently clean, but has no regional bonus. pollution is sensitive so keep that in mind

I was in Colorado due to a war a month ago. So I setup a holding company... in Colorado. It doesn't say how to move it. It'll let memoir my companies for free though
A new second holding company in Cali, where my companies are, is $10,600
I was on the verge of quitting. I'd only log in to work at trai. If I can't figure out how to get setup in Cali, I'm going to have to quit. $10,000 for a part timer is like almost a month of work.
there is no way to move a holding company, also did you set up the holding company in cali? if you only have the colorado company, the only place you can assign companies is in colorado
Nope. I was in Colorado. My companies are in Cali
If you only have one holding company, and did not set up a second, then there is only one place you can settle companies. This is why i am lost on the idea your companies are in california if you only have one holding company, your companies are still free lance so they can't be tied down anywhere other than your holding company. they can only be assigned there
