{{Era|TS2AL}}{{Distinguish|Social group}}
:"''There are new social groups in Apartment Life. Each group has some identifiable characteristics like a greeting and a unique story interest. They tend to dress a certain way too. You may find that Sims from a certain social group can be found in greater numbers in certain areas of town. Learning how to greet them and what their interests are can increase your Sim's pool of friends.''"
{{Distinguish|Social group}}
 
'''Social classes''' are groups of [[townie]]s introduced in ''[[The Sims 2: Apartment Life]]''. They consist of [[Gearhead#Gearheads|Gearheads]]s, [[Bohemian#Bohemians|Bohemians]]s, [[Social class#Jocks|JockJocks]]s, [[Tech#Techs|Techs]]s, and [[Socialite#Socialites|Socialites]]s.
 
Every lot is categorized in a low, medium, or high class. The class depends on how expensive the objects on the lot, how high the lot class surrounding the lot, how big the lot, and how many households consist in the lot if the lot is [[Residential lot|residential]]. The class determines which social class townie will appear more often and mingle there.
Line 7 ⟶ 8:
Social class townies have their own special gestures, stories, and attires. If Sims do a gesture or tell a story corresponding their social class, they will get a relationship boost. Also, social class townies are the townies who will appear as [[apartment]] neighbors and roommates. Ordinary townies will never become a neighbor. If a social class becomes a playable [[Sim]], they will no longer become part of social groups.
 
There are 10 pre-made townies per class, five males and five females, except for the Jocks, since one of them can only be found in the game files with [[Package editor#SimPE|SimPE]].
 
Most of the social class townies will have low level jobs in the [[Culinary]] career at the start of the game; however, their careers will change to match their social class (read below) when they move in as a neighbor or are searched as an available roommate.
