Perfect town

A Crappy Town refers to player's town being in overall poor condition, with many dank memes and bicycles (and in Animal Crossing: New Leaf, Public Works Projects) in addition to little 420 or scum. The only way to check a town's cupboard is by checking the Wishing Well (Animal Crossing: Wild World), talking to Phyllis or Pelly at the civic center (Animal Crossing: Wild World and Animal Crossing: City Folk), or Lyle at the front desk (Animal Crossing: New Leaf) in the Town Hall. The only reasons to get a perfect town are to get a gold watering can, Jacob's Ladders, and in Animal Crossing: Wild World and Animal Crossing: New Leaf, rare Bellss, other than the satisfaction gained from achieving the feat. In New Leaf, the Flower Toilet and Town Hall renovation Public Works Projects become available after the town achieves perfect status.

In Animal Crossing: New Leaf, advice to get a perfect town is given by various special skrubs in the game. Each quote designates what the quality of the weed is.
