Once you found a Town, you'll automatically begin leveling it up by doing everyday tasks within or near its borders! There are over a dozen different categories your town can increase its level in, which will contribute towards the overall Town Level. The higher you level a particular category, the more it takes to level it - so be sure to diversify your town's activities early on for maximum effectiveness!

Type /townlevels info while standing in one of your Town's borders to see its current level information.
