What's your favorite type of custom world?

I like to play two types of worlds:

Large world that has a bustling downtown and on the outskirts a quiet suburb; that way my sims can live in a quiet neighborhood, but can go out on the town for bars and such.

And the other is small rural or foresty type of world where everyone knows each other's names.

I like a word with everything I can fit.
It has to look good and run well with a good layout.

If it will be your first world, maybe just a medium world which You like and runs well will be the best to aim for.

First, thanks for your input! It helps to know what people look for :) As for the size, it's not the first time I've played with CAW, I just honestly have never done anything with the thought of perhaps seeing if anyone else wanted to play it. I know that I'm in the minority - those who can play TS3 with all expansion packs enabled and I really only know how I like setting my own worlds up for my own play style. However I am playing with the thought of building one for other people to use so I thought I'd ask to get a broad perspective :)

Thanks Gracey! That helps a lot to know! Do you usually add or move lots to worlds you play? Or do you like worlds that are as is? What's your favorite range of houses - I'm curious as to how many starter homes vs mid range vs high end vs luxury lots I should have and how many of them should be empty, etc. Do you value aesthetics in building a home more or function more (nothing saying you can't have varying degrees of both lol.) Sorry to pick your brain, but knowing your play style a little really helps me in the answer to those questions so I was super happy you answered! :blush:

@AbellaKellaher
Aw, I'm glad you find my play style helpful.
For me, I like to have the world with a variety of homes, some starters, some mid range and some luxury,
I even like to have a few farms in there as well.I prefer a world to be play ready, with most lots finished, but don't mind
adding a few lots myself that I've downloaded.I like cozy lived in feeling to homes, but if that means making a stove not be able to use then I rather have function(so I don't have constant stuck sims)

For example: Everything Island: Bustling downtown

With quiet suburbs on the outskirts.

I like when my sim has to drive across town to work; because it reminds me of home.

Awesome, perfect thank you for giving me a visual example that's fantastic! :)

I like it when people put normal lot sizes, so you can place the size lots that are in edit world. But some put odd size lots and you can't place normal lot things in it. like 39x40, well most commercial lots are 40x40 there are no commercial lots 39x40.

@Evalen
If you're not against mods, there's a mod that allows you to place the odd sizes

I found a lot of worlds I liked had weird sizes, so I gave this a try.

@GraceyManor I don't use mods, but thank you for responding.

@Evalen
Sure.I'm afraid there's no fix for it then.Wish EA would have included the odd lot sizes, even their own worlds have them.
