Town Square
The town square in Wiskerton is basically a park. Although the currency here is Pet Points and the town square introduces pet stores and drink/ice cream stalls. The more pet points you spend the more the town square expands as well the shop that you shopped in. For example if you spend enough pet points in the pet emporium the emporium will grow bigger and more objects will be available. The town square has a chess table, drinking fountains so your Sims can drink, vending machines, a park fountain (which will expand), bathroom stalls and a statue (also will expand). It is unknown where it is  located as it doesn't show it in the neighbourhood view, but it is known to be near the lake as it sits on the edge of it and can be seen in the background.

Sims 2 (PSP)
The PSP version is smaller and only features four lots or sections and very few families. The town square is also a bit degraded. The four sections consists of Ruff Woods and cabin like section. Birmatown a city like theme like Bridgeport. Pupville is a peaceful neighbourhood. Lastly is Kitty Heights a very upscale section with a home that has two simleon signs on top.
