Pensioner Extraction Centre (fully functional)

NOTE: Refer comments at the end of this page ... this Asset apparently doesn't work correctly once Financial Districts is installed ...

Version 1.2

Don't have the DLCs ...? Mesh Count too high ...? Or is it just too brutal ...? Well in that case, what you need is Move Towards The Light ... an altogether nicer way to manage surplus Seniors, with a low Mesh Count, and no DLCs required !

An Eldercare facility from the dark side, Seniors that have no family are accomodated by the *ahem* Pensioner Extraction Centre (PEC), and that in turn frees up their houses for fresh migrant workers.

Designed for the more 'dystopian' player, the PEC requires the Parklife DLC, the Industries DLC, and the Nursing Homes mod.

[1] Subscribe to the PEC
[2] Download the Nursing Homes mod
[3] Set Options for the mod to determine level of occupancy, and profits, then enable
[4] Using the Districts button, create a Park Area big enough to accomodate the PEC
[5] Add a Small Main Gate for the Park, then place the PEC
[6] (optional) Create a perimeter path and Park fence
[7] Once the PEC is constructed, the Park Area and Gate can be removed
[8] If building a PEC that's remote from the rest of your city, it's recommended that you read through Potential issues for remote PECs

The Entry Booth and Watchtower are available as ploppable Assets, to further improve the safety of residents (Parklife DLC still required though)

... and also how to reduce the number of unemployed workers / create a mini-Disaster, see Change Notes

The Nursing Homes mod calculates the number of Seniors in a city using the vanilla Retirement age of 50. As a result, the mod sees anyone over 50 as a Senior, even if the Retirement age has been changed to a higher figure via Lifestyle Rebalance Revisited. So if the Retirement age is much higher than 50, the PEC can end up with substantial numbers of Adults alongside Seniors (the Adults do I believe remain in the workforce, although I haven't confirmed that).

In my own case, I elected to adjust my city's Retirement age from 65 back to 50, but a side-effect was that I ended up with a city where 47% of the population were Seniors. So the PEC was devised to accomodate them all, then - by changing the [Options] for the Nursing Homes mod - I was able to transform it from a cost centre to a profit centre.

Because the PEC uses modified Assets derived from the Parklife DLC, the structure must initially be placed within a District designated as a Park Area (just big enough to fit the PEC and the optional perimeter path is sufficient). So add the Small Main Gate first, then place the PEC, then add the perimeter path / fence.

Once the PEC has been built - to prevent unwanted tourists - the Park Area / Main Gate can be removed altogether.

- found under Healthcare
Range
- sufficient to service an entire 25 tile city
Workforce
- 15 Wardens (uneducated)
- 2 Supervisors (educated)
- 1 Controller (highly educated)
Other
- the number of rooms can be modified via Nursing Homes options, and can range from 125, to the default of 250, through to 750. The number of occupants peaks at around 1.35 * Number of rooms. More rooms = more occupants (and greater profit)
- Car parks: 1
- Large gathering points (Residents only, no Tourists): 4
- Entertainment: 0
- see image above for all other stats

- isolate the PEC from the rest of the city, and provide it with its own Garbage / Cemetery (a clinic won't be necessary if the PEC is placed in a pollution-free / noise-free area). But look through the Discussion thread below first!
- a one-man Police Station should be sufficient (I use Police Koban).
- to prevent Residents owning cars, use TM:PE to remove all Parking
- Seniors do very occasionally breed, so you may see a few children after a while - about 2-3% of total occupants over the long term
