|game1game = The Sims: Unleashed

'''Old Town''' is a neighborhood introduced in ''[[The Sims: Unleashed]] as'' as an extension of the original neighborhoods introduced in ''[[The Sims]]'' base game. Old Town is featured as a part of all neighborhoods. There are many new lots, and there are now shops, pet stores and gardening centers scattered around the neighborhood. Three of these new lots - 58 Ingleside Drive, 70 Elm Street, and 73 Elm Street - are more expensive than the original most expensive lots at 1 Sim Lane and 2 Sim Lane if they are bulldozed and rezoned to residential. 58 Ingleside Drive is only very narrowly so, at $12,000, while the two on Elm Street cost a whopping $18,000 each.

When ''Unleashed'' is installed and played for the first time, Old Town is added to the pre-existing "original" neighborhood of ten lots on [[Sim Lane]], increasing the amount of lots in the neighborhood to forty. The Sim Lane portion of the neighborhood occupies the top right corner of the map. Old Town is split by a river running from the upper right corner toward the lower left corner. The area to the right of the river features some community lots and more expensive houses, while the area to the left of the river contains most of Old Town's other houses and lots. Old Town is featured in all neighborhoods and is the same for each neighborhood in the beginning, though alterations to Old Town in one neighborhood will not affect Old Town in the other neighborhoods.

According to in-game sources, Old Town was formed by [[Gunther Goth]] while seeking a better life for his wife [[Cornelia Goth|Cornelia]] and son [[Mortimer Goth|Mortimer]]. Old Town's style is inspired by {{WP|New Orleans}}, including jazz music, period architecture, and voodoo shops.

Unlike [[sub-neighborhood]]s like Downtown or Studio Town, community lots in Old Town do not feature [[townies]], but instead feature Sims living in the neighborhood. While Sims may appear as individuals, it is more likely to see entire families (including children and pets). When deciding how many other Sims will appear, Old Town community lots are known for being particularly finicky about system specs, as well as things such as the number of [[NPCNon-playable character|NPCs]]s and animated objects on the lot. Players may find that very "busy" Old Town lots get few, or even no, neighborhood Sims.
