I think the game you are looking for is Constructor, an isometric property management simulation game that was released in 1997 and remastered in 2017. In this game, you can build and manage various types of properties, such as houses, apartments, and factories. You also have to deal with different kinds of tenants, including hippies who may try to squat in your properties and cause trouble. You can evict them or use other means to get rid of them. You can also compete with rival constructors and sabotage their businesses. Constructor is a humorous and challenging game that lets you experience the joys and pains of being a real estate tycoon.
Yup, I used to play that game all the time; loved how you could use the mob to destroy property and threaten tenants. That was a favourite along with GTA London, X-Com Apocalypse and Krazy Ivan. Man, that really brings back memories -- we also had Ecstatica 2 around that time and Destruction Derby. What a diverse selection of games.
Quick search came up with this one: https://store.steampowered.com/app/579020/Constructor/
It does have hippies: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=afk3rAb66ZI
I remember playing this a while back: https://store.steampowered.com/app/297920/Space_Colony_Steam_Edition/
Dune 2?
If you want really old, there was apparently a moon colony add-on/graphics set for the original Sim City.

Other than that, if you're looking for something modern this one's pretty nice: https://store.steampowered.com/app/484900/Aven_Colony/

Those were the good 'ole days.
Can I be a new yawk slumlord
Need more info. Sounds like Tropico.
I don't remember squatting hippies in Tropico.
I think there were Environmentalists.
Definately the Environmentalist cabinet member / faction leader in Tropico 5 was a hippie. She was very annoying.
"There's garbage everywhere! Why would you allow all this liter?!!"
"Okay. I built a landfill."
"El Presidente, this landfill is awful and stinky, you should demolish it immediately!"
"Oh wow, this is extremely realistic. I fucking hate you."
Also, if you don't build housing close enough to places of work, everyone becomes a squatter.
Oh yeah, I forgot about that part.
Space colony game could be Space Colony.
Oops, didn't see the other post. Still, for 2D this is your best bet.
