I can delete my comment if you don't want to have interruptions in the thread, but this is really cool. Always wanted to try something like this.

Yea I was trying this on my own for funsies and DRA was having issues, especially when I had multiple instances of it running

I've never even tried of running multiple instances of DRA, that may have lead me to be dissatisfied with the boundaries of the western districts when I also tried this idea for fun a while back.

Is it even possible for California to run well? I don’t know if the problem is my internet or my computer but on every device I’ve tried California is laggy enough to make it not worth it.

I can barely chug it out on my work laptop but on my home cpu it works fine enough

I think for the Chicago area, I would've had the Chicago district contain all of it + Black South Cook and Hispanic West Cook, have the North Chicagoland wealthy suburbs, then the South Chicagoland and Indiana more working class suburbs. Basically what you had but the Chicago grabs the North side of the city, the North Chicagoland grabs Dupage, and the South Chicagoland grabs Indiana.

For this exercise, I am using the thought process that city borders are not arbitrary, in which case Chicago should generally be kept whole.
