Police department
A police department is the law enforcement building of Sunset Valley and Riverview in The Sims 3 .
This is where Sims get a job in Law Enforcement and where they go if the Sim is in jail. In Sunset Valley, it's near the square, the City Hall and quite far from the Criminal Warehouse despite the info given in the preview poster given in preorder.
Like the science lab, it has a statue in the front of the building, the SVPD and RPD have a police badge. Sometimes, a police cruiser can be seen parking in the front of it.
Having a job in this building may cause your Sim to be distrusted by Evil Sims.
