It isn’t SimCity, but I’ve found Pocket City to be a well done city building game on iOS. Similar feel to SimCity 2000.

I agree, and it has microtransactions or ads or other free-to-play annoying mechanisms. You pay once up front and that's all.

Just to clarify:

It has NO microtransactions or ads or other annoying mechanisms.

If there's any downside, it might be a little too easy. Of course, going back as an adult I've found SC2K to be much easier than I remembered, probably because I know how to balance a budget.
