    The most of housing benefits are for noncombatants. Crafter needs calm place to work (city market is too noisy) with fast access to market board, retainers (can be placed into FC house), aetherial (distinct supplier) and a house (fc supplier).
    So, the best place for this is Lavender Beds. Mist is more "vertical" (stairs everywhere) but is still green and looks nice. The Goblet is vertical too and is 100% stone in addition - bad look.

    Maybe there are another reasons, but for me this was the most important.

    100% stone? You must not visit the same Goblet where my FC house is then. I love it, feels actually urban. The other two cities and their wards don't feel like cities. They feel like outposts and a resort.

    What's wrong with a resort>.<? I wouldn't mind spending the end of days chilling on the beach in costa with a long island tea in one hand and a miqote dancer in another

    You realize you're 'must have' list is highly dependent on which plot you buy in any ward right?

    My FC resides in Plot 25 of the Goblet (Medium)
    below is an image of exactly how far away the nearest market board is from our front yard.



    The nearest ward athernet is right down the steps from that same market board (East)...so like maybe 10 steps away.

    As to being vertical, it's supposed to be...it's supposed to be the 'mountain ward'

    As to it's beauty....well, depends on what you want, we have a LOVELY vista...included was our view, from the street of the event fireworks...but the sunrise/sunset over the valley is beautiful. And the central falls/windmill imo is also asthetically pleasing. I think where some people complain is in the actual look of the actual houses, and about some of the yard layouts (the houses seem to face the 'wrong' way)....but this is true in all wards tbh. (houses located oddly within their plots).

    Lol, we have a 'Solo FC' person that is our neighbor in that house...we almost never see her...but sometimes, when the moon is in the right phase, she appears for a brief fleeting moment :P
