Had a crack at YZV to see if I could complete the M2 challenges within M1 at VH/PH - result, competed with 16 months to spare, tough but eminently doable, as others have proved well before my effort.
But here's the funny thing. The population box said I had room for 40 more people, I checked every single house and they were all full, Ornates with 63 and Impressive Compounds with 20. Two of the IC were of the "This house cannot evolve until the appeal of the neighbourhood increases" ilk, but even so they housed 20 folk and had done so for some time. Two ICs at 20 folk equals 40 more people so I guess this is the 'spare' 40 that the population window is referring to even though they are actually resident. Have others noticed this anomaly before?
