Once you have done that it would be best if you lowered your tax settings as well. Lower your tax settings on retail, commercial, industry, and residential zones. Doing this will keep demand high but cost low for the development of your city. 

Make a road before you do anything. Choose a spot on the edge of the map so that you can lay a long uninterrupted road. Choose the cheapest road to lay and draw your road as long as you can get it. This will most likely be gravel roads. They have 1000 capacity for traffic congestion and don’t require maintenance.

Situations that can cause unhappy citizens are things such as highly populated residential areas, residential areas that are too close to industrial areas with heavy pollution, and high unemployment or tax rate. Highly congested traffic is a fast way to make your citizens unhappy. Having areas such as parks and recreational areas for citizens are often ways of keeping them happy.
