Pierre,

This was an interesting post for me..

Because I played regionally in sc4 in a  similar fashion . Using specialized "job" cities .. for the most part..like you have..
Although I would often later include at least some kinda small residential populations even in these "job " cities..

Most of the job were "filled" by Sims who commuted from other cities,,

Part of the reason , that I like to do this was to than be able to make the near by residential cities a larger population for the lands I had to build upon.

Also o sometimes like to go back and work on "older" cities i have not worked on for quite some time

And yes, thanks..
I did wonder if this was all from the "same" region.
But I have a request for you :

I was wondering if in your next posting, you could give us a new update on what our current region population is currently ?
