Citizens
From the MEGA Wiki
Citizens are the people living in your city. Each one earns gold every second, and they also do the construction work on new buildings.
Population
The Citizens counter on the HUD shows living citizens / your population limit. You start at 12 / 12.
- Buildings with housing raise your limit, up to 720.
- New citizens move in over time while your city is at peace, until you reach the limit.

Income
Each living citizen earns about 3.3 gold per minute, paid into your Resources every second. Every citizen earns the same, so income grows in proportion to population. See Gold.
Sheltering
TipPress H in City View to send citizens into shelters during an attack. Sheltered citizens still count toward your population. Press X to send them back to work.
Housing and most civic buildings double as shelters, as does the Civilian Shelter. See Raids.
