Regional wealth

Regional wealth is a type of currency. It is primarily gained by selling resources at the Trading Post or through having level 2 or higher Burgage Plots. It can be used to establish trade routes, buy resources, livestock, or purchase backyard extensions at the Burgage Plot. Its icon looks like a small pouch of coins.

A trade route is the best way to start reliably selling resources for regional wealth. Many early resources sell for 1-4 regional wealth at the start of a game.

As examples of purchase prices, importing resources is much more expensive than selling resources at the start of a game and tends to be around 18 regional wealth before development upgrades are applied. An ox cost 20 regional wealth to buy using the Hitching post. A Vegetable Garden backyard extension costs 15 regional wealth to construct.

Regional wealth is distinct from personal wealth accrued by taxation.
