The thing I've found helpful to mitigate everyone dying at once is to pretty quickly start a second village. Then alternate which one gets the new house. I typically start doing this by the time I have 16 to 20 families. I mean, of course they do still die, but you don't have the problem of an entire neighborhood emptying out at once. Having a 70 year old couple next door to a 20-something family with two kids, next door to a 40 year old couple with a teenager really balances things.
