I guess this option fits best.
I choose aspirations for sims based on personality or storytelling. I've used the location aspirations for that purpose probably about as much as any other aspiration. I don't focus on trying to complete the aspirations much while playing. I tend to let them progress naturally by just playing my story.
My only criticism of the location based aspirations is that sims get a happy moodlet (from the "home turf" trait) while in their own home neighborhood instead of while in the world that the aspiration is for. So if my sim lives in Willow Creek and I gave them the Komorebi Sightseer aspiration in CAS, they will have a happy "home turf" moodlet while at home in Willow Creek and then lose the happy moodlet when they finally get to go to Mt Komorebi. This seems... weird.
