Travel more. I've got a few parks within relatively easy distance of me (Blackpool Pleasure Beach, Lightwater Valley, Flamingo Land, Alton Towers I guess), but I love going on holiday to theme parks. Give me that and I'd be happy.
 
Currently 17 and I have done a lot of traveling in my lifetime. I do personally prefer to do things that I will enjoy as opposed to just upping my credit count. Phoenix has a small amusement park called Castles and Coasters with 3 or so credits, but the place looked dire, so instead I hiked Camelback, visited Taliesten and the botanical gardens, hand had the most rewarding experience possible. I still have over 200 credits, though - my life goal is over 1000. I still need to get to Japan, Scandinavia and California!
 
The nearest park to me (Melbourne, Australia) is SFMM. We don't have parks in Australia. (None I'm willing to credit as "parks")

Warner Bros. Movie World?
Dreamworld?
Sea World?

It doesn't have many parks, but these are DEFINITELY parks.
 
Well those are at the other end of the country and aren't really worth traveling for. Like cmon, one of our biggest rides is an SLC

Yeah, Gold Coast is pretty far from Melbourne, I do agree, but they do have a few Intamin launchers and a Mack Water coaster which should all be better than an SLC. But hey, you have the world's longest continuously operating coaster in your hometown, which is also pretty neat! :)
 
Like honestly, a trip to LA is not THAT much more expensive, I'm currently over in the states (actually in line for Loch Ness Monster as I type this) doing a big park run bc there's not much at home...

Also you can get a year pass to SFMM for about the same price as a day pass to the Gold Coast parks. Obviously someone is making a giant profit.
