Below average

#147 of 199 City sets under 200 pieces

Fourteen minifigures, about three times the usual rate for a City set under 200 pieces, and a 4.0 rating from 257 builders are this funfair people pack’s appeal. But it gives about 35 pieces per $10 against 57, much less plastic per dollar (estimated from the parts list), and at $39.99 it costs nearly twice what similar contents usually do, so it scores below average.
