Build a Minecraft Village

Getting bored being all alone? Don't like those messy generated villages? It seems like you've come to the right place! This article will teach you how to build a town to live in with some villagers.

Steps

  1. Build a foundation. It's important because you'll get the idea of how large to build, preferably around 50x60. You can break this afterwards, yet having a wall around your village will help protect it from mobs. Having a gate will allow access to the outside of your village.
    • It's better to have somewhere for your White House, so make more places for the White House, probably 55x70. But you can decide how big is your White House.
  2. Build village's White House. Preferably, you will be the mayor as you built it all, so it can also be your house. However, this is optional.
  3. Build a road in your village. You can also build city roads if you think your village needs to be better.
  4. Build houses. Size and the amount of houses in the street is all up to you. If you have a small foundation, maybe 3 cottages on each side. If it is large, maybe 4 houses on each side.
  5. Build community buildings. The basic ones:
    • Shop/Market/Supermarket
    • Restaurant/Cafe/Pub
    • Bank
    • School
    • Church
    • Jails/police stations/hospitals
  6. Populate your village. You didn't build a village for yourself, so spawn some villagers by using /summon villager command. You can change the attributes of villagers upon summoning them.
  7. Come up with where people will work. It depends, really. What are your community lots? Having a shop will allow shopkeepers, and a school will allow teachers. Think about that.
  8. Write some laws. You provide a nice shelter for your citizens, so use the imagination to create laws for your village. Also, think of some punishments for those rebels who break your law(s).
  9. Make a big underground shelter for your villagers to secure them or store things.Probably 25x25.
  10. Turn it into a server (optional).
  11. You've built a village. Have fun playing as a mayor!
    • Be creative! You can also try building some cool skyscraper houses!

Tips

  • Don't worry if it takes a very long time to build. It is better not to rush.
  • To protect your villagers from hostile mob attacks, build iron Golems by putting two blocks of iron on top of each other, then putting one on both sides of the top block. Finally place a pumpkin on top of the middle block.
  • An ideal foundation size might be 50x50.
  • Building foundation is optional, however it is easier to plan it all out, especially if you're a beginner.
  • Put signs around so people can notice or use an invisible potion.
  • Make sure to defend it from zombies looking for snacks!

Warnings

  • If you spawn villagers on the roof of a building, they will eventually run off and hurt themselves, possibly making it easier for zombies to kill them quickly (unless your difficulty is set to Peaceful).
