The Broke Family resides in Pleasantview. It consists of Brandi Broke, widow of Skip Broke; Dustin Broke, a teen going steady with Angela Pleasant; and Beau Broke, a toddler who is the last born in the family before you play the game.

As the name suggests, they have a monetary situation, supposedly because Brandi has just lost her husband and source of income. Brandi is also the daughter of Bob Newbie and Betty Newbie, a married couple introduced in The Sims. When the game is first played, Brandi is pregnant with her last child from Skip.

In The Sims 3, The Broke Family lives in Riverview.

Also in the Riverview graveyard their is the grave of Bernard Broke. He died as an adult and may be the father or brother of Flat and Buck but he is not featured in the family tree.
