I have a problem on my Realm with Iron Golems spawning naturally, either in villages, or in created farms.
I am able to create them manually with commands, and by building them, they do not spawn in village (aside from the original seeded golems)
I created an Iron Farm in an isolated area, with 20 villagers, all with new workstations, and beds. Villagers all linked to beds and workstations.
Cats are spawning, but Iron Golems are not.

Does the same issue occur on a local copy of the world?
Are you certain that the villagers are still all linked to their workstations?

I just downloaded a copy of the world, and ran it locally. Problem persists.
I have just re-linked the villagers after 1.16.200, hoping the stealing issue would resolve the golem spawn, but no change.

Hello. I am having this problem in my local world on iOS.
I used a design by SilentWhisperer to build my iron farm (20 beds, villagers, workstations - they cannot pathfind to their beds once linked but they stand in water; they are in three groups; they cannot move but are surrounded by their workstations so they can work). For a couple of weeks all was well. Now no more iron golems are spawning, although cats are.
I’ve relinked both beds and workstations to no avail.
I’ve copied the world folder over to a PC (quitting the game first, assuming that is necessary) to analyze and although I’m not good at the analysis I do see that only 9 of the 20 villagers are working. I broke all workstations and rebuilt, ensuring green particles, with no change except the last worked time updated. I will try this again, watching all three groups carefully, and update this ticket.
Edit: my iron farm is fixed! It seems that at some point in November (1.16.101 released 11/23/2020?) the linked workstations were scrambled. When I said earlier that I had relinked them, I had not done it completely I had just broken them one at a time and placed them back, waiting for the particles to appear on the blocks. When I tested just now I saw that some of those workstations were linked to villagers on the other side of the farm.
I just did it properly by breaking them all, then placing them one at a time making sure that they went next to the villager that claimed it. I now have them all linked properly, 19 of 20 have worked in the past day, and iron golems are spawning again.
