Most rabbit holes function as workplaces where Sims are employed and work in. Most of them are building-sized, though some of them, such as [[mausoleum]], [[gypsy wagon]], or [[arboretum]] are not. Sims can perform various activities inside rabbit holes, such as getting employed, attending a show, attending a class, and so on. Some rabbit holes give a [[lot assignment]] to [[community lot]]s. A rabbit hole placed on a community lot will also replace the lot's map tag with the rabbit hole's map tags.

 

 

Although rabbit holes will fade when the camera gets closer, players can see their contents with cameraman view by pressing the Tab key. Everything inside the building is 2-D decorative textures that serve to make the rabbit holes or buildings more realistic when players peek through their windows from the outside. Environment sounds and music can be heard when Sims are inside the rabbit holes. Usually, that will be a sound effect related to the rabbit holes, such as a school bell at [[school]] or eerie voices at mausoleum, with audible background music.

===Multi-purpose rabbit holes===

Since ''[[Late Night]]'', some multi-purpose rabbit holes are present to preserve [[neighborhood]]s, such as [[Bridgeport]], that lack enough space for big lots. Although this seems practical, there are some issues with multi-purpose rabbit holes, such as the inability to complete opportunities that are related to rabbit holes. Sometimes, the option to perform tasks from opportunities is not available, which prevents the player from completing the opportunities. For example, the [[Afterschool activity|afterschool activities]]-related opportunities cannot be completed at school in [[Moonlight Falls]].
