== The Sims 2 neighborhoods ==
''The Sims 2'' allows players to create all-new neighborhoods and sub-neighborhoods from scratch. Players can use neighborhood terrain templates that were included with the game, or can use ''[[w:c:simcity:SimCity 4|SimCity 4]]'' to create custom terrains. After choosing to create their own neighborhood from the existing terain templates, the player must then give the picked neighborhood a name and select a terrain type (Lush, Desert, Dirt or Concrete). ▼
When a player chooses a premade neighborhood from the main menu to play in, the player is greeted with the [[Story Mode]] window that introduces the captured lifes of every resided family of the hood. Custom neighborhoods can also come with a story made by a player, though the mode doesn't open by default after entering the neighborhood view.
Players have much greater control of customizing a neighborhood to the liking. After clicking the button labeled as ▼
"Lots & Houses", the player can place down, move and rotate or remove a lot. Additionally, the player can decorate the neighborhood with trees, ponds, stones, landmarks, effects and more.▼
Unlike in ''The Sims'', all sub-neighborhoods in ''The Sims 2'' offer residential as well as community lots. Downtown and shopping district sub-neighborhoods are essentially treated as extensions of the neighborhood, but colleges and vacation destinations have the following restrictions:
Line 55 ⟶ 51:
*Sims living outside of a college sub-neighborhood cannot enter it unless invited by a playable young adult.
*Sims are unable to live full-time in vacation destinations, although they can own and visit a holiday home there.
