I believe order over 100 and taxes below "high" gives you a chance at the poor assessor trait.

I tend to set taxes as high as they can be and still keep order over 70, unless it's a small city I am trying to grow. I will not leave a governor in that city.

Population growth tends to take care of itself after about 2000. I want to ensure I have enough cash to keep my building queues and troop making cities constantly working.
