I want to build one, but I find it seemingly difficult to make. Any tips or help? Would be cool.

Thanks.

Do you have a reference?

Always use a reference when building things that you've never built before.

I would suggest you don't try to do a bunch of detail if your making a whole city because it would make for a bunch of lag.

I would start with the road grid for your town. Then I would go on to major things in the city like if you wanted to add a mall and a post office.

Use unions, use as much detail as you can, and try to make it sound professional

Thanks for the tips guys I was planning to make this city:

But, I guess I'll have to take some patience and practice with making it.

Depends what you're making it for. If it's a map for a game, you should try to keep the part count low to reduce lag.

If you want to make it very realistic, make a decal of a city map so you can build the roads to scale then place the city map on a large part with a BlockMesh so you can change the Scale of the Mesh to align with your map size.
Use the street view of Google maps to see what is on each block.
