You can get really lucky and get a good starting position. And first im not saying that this was my first city and second it reached that in around 2030ad.THis game was a GOTM mod so i dont think that those kind of thing were changed in it. If they were well then I lie

Yep. The highest food tile is the floodplain wheat. Flooplain is 3 food, + 2 food for wheat, + 2 food for irrigation and railroad = 7 food per tile. A city can work 20 tiles plus the center square, so if every tile in the city's radius is an irrigated railroaded floodplain wheat, it makes 140 food per turn + 3 from the city square (if you're agricultural). Every citizen requires 2 food per turn, so the city can have 71 citizens and be growing at one food per turn, or have 72 citizens and be starving at one food per turn.

level 38 before people starting starving , 37 population was ok.

I've gotten a 33 normally, without even trying to pump it up. It was a city I had captured, so I was less concerned with pumping up its production (I already had my core producing cities) and all the land around it was pretty favorable and next thing I know... 33.

My highest was about 16.

It can jump form 71 to 73 with Longevity
