The '''Alto Family family''' is a wealthy premade family. They first appeared in the "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W0c2GvLOvL8 The Heist]" trailer for ''The Sims 3'' when Nick and Vita Alto bickered after Nick's sloppy side made him fart audibly. The pre-made storyline for the family involves a business feud with the [[Landgraab family]], as Nick and Vita are enemies with Geoffrey and Nancy Landgraab (although Holly Alto is merely acquaintances with both her parents and the Landgraabs) as well as the fact that [[Nancy Landgraab|Nancy]] and Nick are both on the same career level trying to get ahead. They live in a mansion in the upper-class area of the town, across the mansion of the Landgraabs. Their last name is a pun on the television show, ''The Sopranos''.
 
It has been implied that they - at least, Nick and Vita - are the "bad guys" in town. The town, filled with traditional old money families like the Goths and the Landgraabs, got disturbed when the city-bred Alto family arrived with their city-born personality and try to change the system of the town to a more modernized, corporate fashion. The residents of [[Sunset Valley]] will have to pick the side of either the Altos with their uptown ideals or the [[Goth Family|Goth]]'s more traditional views. The Altos aren't as involved in a conflict with the Goths, however, as they are with the Landgraabs. Even though it is said that they run most of the towns commercial properties, the family does not start with any real estate properties belonging to the family, but with their large family fund at the beginning of the game, it is possible for the player to buy out some of the establishments in town.
Line 45 ⟶ 55:
However, in contrast to Nick and Vita is their daughter Holly. Unlike them, she is a good Sim who does not play the role of what their expected offspring should be. She is neither cruel or tacky, and has made friends of her own and no enemies at the beginning of the game. She dresses like a middle-class teenager with a yellow, floral long-sleeve top, khaki capri pants, and slippers, and other than her formal attire, she can easily be mistaken for a daughter of a middle-class family. She looks nothing like her parents, with a bright face and ash-brown hair and slim figure. In the household, her room is probably the least expensive, if you don't include the bathroom connecting to both her room and the kitchen.
 
It is revealed in ''[[The Sims 3: Late Night]] '' that a possible ancestor, Ebenezer Alto, founded [[Bridgeport]], which could mean that is where Nick, Vita, and Holly moved from. This is very likely because they are very rich and industrial and Bridgeport is a rich, industrial city.
 
In the [[The Sims 3 (Nintendo DS)|''The Sims 3'' (Nintendo DS)]] Holly re-appears in the neighborhood [[Beacon Bay]], but with a very different appearance and personality which she appears to have inherited from her mother, unlike her counterpart from [[Sunset Valley]]. At this point in time, she is married to [[Don Alto]], who appears to have taken her last name. Her family bio states that her and her husband's motto is "rich, rich, rich" and that many business practices have distanced them from happiness and redemption. Since a grown up [[Alexander Goth]] from [[The Sims 2]] is in the game, and since, in Sunset Valley, Holly is already a teenager during Mortimer Goth's childhood, it seems likely that [[Holly Alto|Holly]] would be deceased by then, so she may have either drank several Young Again/Youthful Potions or she may a descendant from Sunset Valley's Holly Alto.
