The manual describes the family as "[[wikipedia:Nouveau riche|Nouveau Riche]] and Evil," and they fit the description perfectly. Both parents have either mean-spirited or evil as a trait, and it is clear that they have made enemies in town. They are also clearly new money, as even though their house is lavish and luxurious, it is far tackier than the Landgraab mansion- it is a white and pink house with a rose garden out front that features many objects that appear to made out of solid gold (such as a staircase and bathtub). Holly is the only family to break away from these trends, as she is neither cruel nor tacky.

The Alto Family first appeared in the "The Heist" trailer when the parents were arguing with each other because Mr. Alto let his sloppy side show. They have a business feud with the Landgraab Family. Their last name is a pun on the television show, The Sopranos. It has been revealed that they are the 'bad guys' in town. The residents of Sunset Valley will have to pick the side of either the Altos with their uptown ideals or the Goth Family's more traditional views. Even though they almost run the town, it is unknown why they aren't in any other game (see their family theories for more info).

The manual describes the family as "Nouveau Riche and Evil," and they fit the description perfectly. Both parents have either mean-spirited or evil as a trait, and it is clear that they have made enemies in town. They are also clearly new money, as even though their house is lavish and luxurious, it is far tackier than the Landgraab mansion- it is a white and pink house with a rose garden out front that features many objects that appear to made out of solid gold (such as a staircase and bathtub). Holly is the only family to break away from these trends, as she is neither cruel nor tacky.
