Strangetown is a pre-made neighborhood in The Sims 2. There are 11 lots, one of which is a lot not yet built on, and 187 Sims.
It is similar to real-life Roswell, or any other small desert community. It is filled with mysteries, alien stories and disappearing Sims.
Strangetown is the neighborhood used in the The Sims 2 for Nintendo DS and GBA versions of the games, although only Tank Grunt and Johnny Smith make an appearance. The Sims 2 on PSP, however, takes place wholly in Strangetown with much of the same cast and added Sims.
Strangetown is also connected with the Pleasantview storyline, in which Bella Goth has been abducted by aliens, and then left in Strangetown. However, the 'Strangetown Bella' is "fake", many fans remain determined to get the real Bella back. It is possible for Bella to return to her family, (see below) but the actual storyline remains that Bella in Strangetown is the "real" one.
For information how to bring Bella back, see Reuniting the Goths.

The Sims 2 (console)
Strangetown is featured in the console version of The Sims 2. Two aliens live in Strangetown, named XY-YY and XHT-F, surname Smith. The house they live in is a regular house, though it's full of alien computers and sleeping pods. All the doors are metal, and they slide open as if on a spacecraft. The house itself is disguised by a cloaking device which creates an illusion of a house; this illusion can be walked through in order to reach the real house. (Behind the house is a crater left when XY-XY crashed in the title sequence. The crater holds the remains of the spacecraft, which is beaming up to ground level, as if projecting itself onto land in order to preserve itself.) Next to the house is a trailer home owned by a Sim named Jonas Bragg. The two species are in a feud, presumably because of their differences. Other areas in Strangetown include Sunset Canyon, Mesa Gallery, and 8 Rockpile Rd.
The Sims 3
Strangetown does not appear in The Sims 3, however, it is mentioned quite a few times:
- If a Sim throws away perfectly good food, the Sim will get the negative moodlet "wasteful". In the description of the moodlet, it is mentioned that "there are starving children in Strangetown !"
- The Infectious Disease Researcher level of the Medical Career mentions a contagious "Strangetown Syndrome".
- Also, when a Sim becomes the Leader of the Free World they may get an Opportunity which mentions Strangetown suffering from mud and a heavy blizzard, causing the mud to freeze.
- A particular piece of news that randomly appears in the newspaper refers to researchers in Strangetown investigating a phenomenon.
