I stopped having much time to play the game, so when I was around level 20-something, I replaced almost all of my buildings with long-accumulation ones (which also happen to be the highest profit per hour per tile, including repairs). Now my island consists almost entirely of business centers, bowling alleys, and waterslides.

I was lucky to have kept a lvl0 Obstacle Course around which I use to convert $ to XP--I copy it, then upgrade twice and demolish (with two 50% boosts for each upgrade and the demolish). This nets me 1300 XP for about $235,000. I'm going to add a new chart soon to the Gaining XP page to show how much XP you can get for similar constructions/upgrades/demolitions to convert $ to XP. So far, constructing a Cabin, upgrading it 2 times, and then demolishing it (with two 50% boosts for each operation) seems to get the best XP/$. However, it takes a long time -- it's only 44XP for about $5100 each time.
