New to making towns and cities, could use some suggestions for Galentia

I am fairly new to OpenGeoFiction, having created an account here last month. I had attempted to start a town off of a highway within 24 hours of joining, but realised I was not all that experienced with making towns and cities in OpenGeoFiction, so I decided to make some tests and try out stuff without saving it to the map for all to see, and started thinking about a smaller town idea I could easily make. Recently I created the town of Galentia as my first town I a fully creating, located off of West Central Expressway I-101 in Commonia, designed to be a stop along the highway/motorway on long routes, where you can get gas, food or even stay the night at a hotel. I built it along the motorway West Central Expressway I-101 seeing that a super long stretch of it was empty, had no gas stations along it, or even any population at all. I built it a little ways from the city of Celemberra so that if this were real life, there'd be cars actually consistantly using the nearby motorway and there'd be many people who'd stop in the town of Galentia. The town of Galentia also has some houses and a small population, although is mainly built as a stop for long routes along the nearby motorway. The town of Galentia is currently only being based on my experiences stopping along the highway in the various parts of the USA (I visit family for Thanksgiving on the east coast each year and drive a few hours from the airport to the beach, I live in Western Colorado and drive a few hours to Denver multiple times a year, occasionaly make other long drives throughout the country and in a lot of the drives final destinations I've stayed in hotels that are there) to small towns thats main offerings are services that would be mainly used by people who stop off of the highway.

Anyways, as I am a new user, I was wondering if anyone could make some suggestions for my town so I can make it better. Just remember, I'm new so my town might not be all that great right now, and don't give me extremely advanced suggestions either.
