    Hold cn_Y to open your "economy" tab.

    Once here, go left to your taxes and set your industrial taxes more than 5% higher than residential.

    I set my residential to 8% and my industrial to 14% so that it is "over 5% higher" but it could very well be that 5% on the dot suffices.

    Now simply wait 1 year long and the achievement will unlock.

    MAJORPOOPY5% on the dot works. It worked for the opposite achievement.

    thomaskoratOne year is like... 45-60 minutes? (85000 citizens, 9 tiles)

    Gerbasgamera day is about 10 seconds on 3x speed. So a year is 61 minutes. Probably a bit less though.

    GTA3RockstarIt's 5 seconds a day at 3x speed. So a year is 30 minutes~

    RunJumpSlipFallIt’s worth adding to this, once you set your tax rate, leave it alone. I changed it a couple of times to try and get the 15% happiness achievement, and whilst always keeping more than 5% gap it didn’t unlock until I left the taxes completely unchanged for a year.

    TallRedeyeI disappeared all the industrial area and I just simply put the taxes all the way up, that should do the work!
