Line 36:
The family bin, unlike the [[lots and houses bin]], is neighborhood specific, so families can't be moved from one neighborhood to another. [[Sub-neighborhood]]s are the exception, though. A sub-hood (with the exception of a university) attached to a neighborhood shares its family bin. So, for example, if there is a [[Downtown (The Sims 2)|Downtown]] attached to [[Pleasantview]], any of Pleasantview's inhabitants could go to live in Downtown and vice-versa.
 
Sims in the family bin cannot be called, even if they have cell phones. Since they're are not living on a residential lot that has a phone, they are not considered to have a phone, even if they have a cell phone. However, Sims in the family bin may be brought home from work or school. Also, if ''[[The Sims 2: Open for Business]]'' is installed, they may appear in the hiring pool;, and if ''[[The Sims 2: FreeTime]]'' is installed, they may appear on [[hobby lot]]s.
 
Players can delete households that are in the family bin, but doing so is not recommended. Deleting a household from the family bin doesn't actually remove all the data from the character files of the Sims in the household. It can leave behind orphaned memories, invisible gossip memories, or files that are related to the "permanently missing" Sims. This can eventually cause the neighborhood to become corrupt. The correct way to delete a Sim can be found [[Game guide:How to delete a Sim correctly|here]].
