Is it a good idea to use a Monopoly style board for a non-Monopoly style game so that the players can set the goals instead of having a finish line? I've never made a board game before so I'm sorry if this is a stupid question.

That's a very subjective question so it's hard to answer whether it is good or not. Also to be perfectly honest I don't really understand your question. Could you possibly reword it so it makes more sense?

I think it may help if you tell us about the game. So we can come up with a solution to your question.

What about different sized squares on the board. The bigger the square the larger the population, but the more it cost's to build in that area.
You could also add (to my idea) residental, commercial, and agriculature areas on the board (shading could represent this). Were the squares are located also adds to Population. (I.E. Commercial would have the most, and agriculature would have the least pop.)
Just a few ideas. Good Luck,

Sure, here goes:
You know how a lot of board games have a finish line? Well, I wanted to make a sort of abstract game where the players can make the game go on for as long as they want. I hope that helps.
