Langley Falls
A full view of Sunset Valley
'Before Pleasantview, there was Sunset Valley. Founded by the Goth family, and built up by the Landgraabs to be a quiet, peaceful town. But when the Altos arrived with uptown ideals, will the townsfolk feel the need to choose sides?'
Name Langley Falls
Game(s) The Sims 3
Onomatology 
Langley Falls
Langley Falls is the neighborhood shipped with The Sims 3.

Overview

Langley Falls is very large compared to the neighborhoods in previous The Sims games, having a total of 97 lots with various playable characters and about 86 in total pre-made. The main part of the town is the park, where Sims can have a picnic, go fishing, or take a stroll and maybe meet someone new; there are also cinemas, gyms, restaurants, shops, pools, and other recreational facilities. Sims can now visit all their friends' and neighbors' homes and call up their friends with the new cell phone, for a night on the town.

Langley Falls mixes modern and futuristic building ideas with nostalgic architecture and design rooted in American suburbs of the 1950s. The town is very unique on all accounts and hosts a whopping 25 playable families. Langley Falls is full of places to explore and has a very diverse cityscape, leaving players hours of fun while exploring alone.

The houses in Langley Falls are diversely priced, but every little group of houses are generally similarly priced. For example, the homes by the public beach are generally cheap, making them homes for lower-middle class type Sims, although (if viewing the water as south), the further west you go the nicer they become, until they're more like upper-middle class type homes. Summerhill Court contains the largest, most expensive lots. The area directly behind city hall has some of the poorest houses, and behind that zone is a middle class area. Along the east side of Langley Falls are some very nice homes, probably for upper-middle class Sims.

There are 21 available empty lots for players to build on. They are priced from §1200 at the cheapest, to §14,700 as the most expensive. The amount of space (in squares) for building goes from 19x29 at the smallest to 60x60 at the largest. The most expensive lot, 15 Summer Hill Court, is on the same hill as the Landgraabs' and Alto's mansions.

Trivia

Secret Mine in the Night.
  • The abandoned mine can be found close to Pinochle Point, there are glowing yellow eyes peeking out of it during the day and night.
  • Many players believe that Langley Falls is Pleasantview several decades before The Sims, where it is called Old Town. Others believe it cannot be as Gunther Goth, the founder of Pleasantview, would have been too young. Sunset Valley is set 50 years before The Sims 2 and 25 years before The Sims. Also, some believe that Sunset Valley is set on the West Coast because of the way the sun sets and rises.
  • In EA's Burnout Paradise, an area is also named Sunset Valley which may have given its name.
  • As the Sunset Valley description states, there seems to be a rivalry between the Landgraabs and the Altos. Meanwhile, the Goths are living elsewhere in town and seem to have nothing to do with it.
