The Burbs started out new to the town. In The Sims: Unleashed, the Burbs moved to Old Town because Brad is tired of the city, while Tiffany is not.

  • Jennifer Burb -- (Daniel's sister) -- Popular name meaning "fair, white, smooth"
  • Lucy Burb -- Popular name meaning "light"
  • Brad Burb -- (John's father) -- Popular name meaning "broad".
  • Tiffany Burb -- (John's mother) -- Popular name meaning "manifestation of god". It may have been chosen due to the stereotype of fashionable and popular girls being named Tiffany.

  • Susan Burb-- (John's paternal grandmother) -- Popular name meaning "lily" or "rose"
