* Due to the appearance of the Monty family, the numerous shared street names, some which directly mention Veronaville, the presence of [[Octavius Capp]] in the local graveyard as well the similar architecture, some players have theorized that Monte Vista in fact is Veronaville, or that the towns are close together, similar to the connection between [[Sunset Valley]], [[Neighborhood 1]] and [[Pleasantview]]. However, Monte Vista is entirely based on Italy, while Veronaville has a comparatively small "Italian" side, with the majority of it's buildings being in a decidedly Northern European style.
*"Monte Vista" is a partial phonetic anagram of "Mona Lisa", a famous painting made by an Italian artist called Leonardo Da Vinci. The phrase itself roughly translates to "Mountain View".

*Monte Vista is themed after a typical Italian hilltop town and resembles cities in the [[Wikipedia:Tuscany|Tuscany]] region of Italy, including [[Wikipedia:Volterra|Volterra]] and [[Wikipedia:Monteriggioni|Monteriggioni]].
*As noted by Rebecca Sherin, the town was based on San Gimignano <ref>[http://rjshearin.com/worlds.html Rebecca Shearin Worlds]</ref>
*Monte Vista is mentioned in the object description of the "16th Century Monte Vista Bar Globe" from ''[[The Sims 4: Vintage Glamour Stuff]]''. It was created by a Sim named J. Marano.
