I did see more unlocks than you listed in Areas 1 and 2, and significantly more in Area 3. Your list seems more complete in Area 4, as I didn't seem to pass any of your unlocks without using the business glitch, and I'm on Area 4 town 59 with 127.87 bh pioneers, and I need 2.43 bi for the next town.

Remember that it's not just about going west at maximum population to get the max amount for town 60, (although that's the biggest part) because the formula for maximum population for a town is quite complicated. If it was something like 100x of what the sum of pioneers, settlers, and spent pioneers was at the start of the town minus the amount gained from resets in the current town, then yes, all you would need to do is go west at maximum population every time and then you'd have the max possible for town 60 - spent pioneers. Unfortunately, that's not how it works.

To really reach the maximum possible population for town #60, you would need to go west at maximum population every time, never reset before going west except on the 60th town, (doing it a couple times won't have a big impact, but doing it on every town or most towns will cause the difference to add up to a significant amount) and spend no more than a millionth of your pioneers per town. I keep it at a billionth just to be sure. It slows things down a lot, but the glitches make up for it.

You don't need to worry about the 3rd thing that I listed, because it's insignificant unless you spend a large fraction of your pioneers on every town, but because someone asked on steam what the maximum population for each Area is, I want to be certain that I have reached it.

If you need any more information, please let me know.
