With Australia is it better to settle in a coastal tile or near a river?
Playing with Australia you have "Land Down Under", which gives +3 housing in coastal cities. I'm not sure if this is cumulative with housing from fresh water sources, or not.
So I would like to know the housing bonuses with Australia for:
- coastal tile with no fresh water
- inland tile with fresh water access, and
- coastal tile with fresh water
Is there any other reason besides housing that could influence this decision?
Both
It is best to have both fresh water and coast as Australia. Both fresh water (River, Lake, etc) and coast (Australia only) provide +3 Housing each. Having only one is still fine, but fresh water is no better or worse than a coastal only city.
