Even though you have a lot of room to work with, Placer Vista is going to be a huge pain. Lack of water and limited options set this up as a good mining town -- but nothing more.
Elevation and Terrain
There's no water access for this one, and the site has a major depression in it that is just deep enough to cause some problems with your roads.
Water Table
Water on this site is at a premium. Don't waste even a drop of it. The northeast corner has a small reserve, but the primary squirt will be just south of dead center. No water towers in the corner on this one.
Resources
There is a significant metal vein and two small coal deposits on this site. I would highly recommend digging up the metal on this site.
Usable Land
The road entrance -- which is in the southwest corner -- lands you next to a deep depression whose jagged features are going to be trouble. The rail line, on the other hand, comes in on the south side onto a wide-open field. This could be useful. A tiny chunk of the northwest corner is unusable, but overall you're in good shape.
