'''Veronaville''' ({{IPAc-en|v|ə|ˈ|r|o|ʊ|n|ə|ˌ|v|i|l}}) is one of the three original pre-made [[neighborhood#The Sims 2 neighborhoods|neighborhood]]s inshipped with ''[[The Sims 2]]'' base game. The name of the town comes from ''Verona'', the fictional town of Romeo and Juliet, based upon a real town in Italy. The town itself is based on a European setting, with a viaduct near the north end and a canal dividing the town into two architecturally different sections, the "English" side, featuring Tudor homes reminiscent of Shakespeare's hometown of Stratford-upon-Avon, and the "Italian" side, featuring Mediterranean villa-style homes of Verona. This divide clearly suits the divide between the two main families, the Capps and the Montys (meant to represent the Capulets and the Montagues of ''Romeo and Juliet'') and also represents the divide in the cultures of the two families, The Capulets being more North European and the Montagues being more Southern European. The Capps live on the wealthier and more prominent "English" side, while the Montys live on the less prominent and more rural "Italian" side. The other family, the Summerdreams, are the neutral family, yet they live on the "English" area of town. Strangely, the Montys are the only family to live on the "Italian" side.
 
Even though there are just three pre-made families in Veronaville, the total population including Townies numbers 186 Sims. All of the Sims', streets', and houses' names are based on Shakespeare's plays. The Summerdreams, for example, are from ''A Midsummer Night's Dream''.

=== The Capp Family ===
The [[Capp family]] resides on the "English" side of Veronaville which include Tudor-stylestyled homes of different sizes and a very ''Old Town'' ambience.
==== Memories ====
Like most Sims in the series, memories a distant family member ''(ex. an aunt to a nephew)'' would receive such as ''"(subject) got an A+ on (his/her) report card"'' are not usually shown; however, yet some siblings like [[Goneril Capp|Goneril]], [[Regan Capp|Regan]], and [[Kent Capp]] do not even appear to retain memories of their childhood together. [[Consort Capp]] seems to have the most correct timeline of memories, even if there are still many holes in it. Memories most siblings would remember such as ''"(subject) grew up well"'' are no where to be found from any Capp family member with a sibling. Most memories are individualized to that certain character (''See [[Juliette Capp]]'s memories.'') While one character may have a memory of another character ''"Taught (subject) how to walk"'' another may not have that memory (''See [[Consort Capp|Consort]] and [[Goneril Capp]]'s memories.)''

=== The Monty Family ===
The [[Monty family]] resides on the "Italian" side of Veronaville which include Mediterranean villa-stylestyled homes and a ''Spanish-like'' ambience.
====Age====
Just like the [[Capp family]], the Montys do have some errors with their age, though not as excessive as those of the Capps. One of these errors is connected with [[Vincentio Pantalone]], the father of [[Isabella Monty]]. Her memories tell that Vincentio died as an adult after his grandson [[Claudio Monty|Claudio]] got married, which is impossible. What makes his age even more of a mystery is the fact that Isabella already was an elder at Claudio's wedding. This is also confusing since Claudio's children were born after the wedding and are both teenagers at the start of the game, while Isabella only has aged one single day into the elder life stage.
