How Do You Manage Your Population?

I created a custom template I use to start any new saves. In this save I've given the majority of premades a makeover and/or hot/cold outfits, deleted a few, merged a few households and bulldozed some residential homes. I've also added copies of favorite Sims I've played in other saves and remodeled townies that I liked. Some townies are service Sims and vampires. It's nice knowing exactly who will be delivering the mail instead of some random game-generated new Sim in every save.
I still get generated Sims, but not as many. I delete the ones I don't like/need with a couple now and then allowed to stay. If I really like them, they get saved to my library for the custom template. My plan is to eventually have enough remodeled service Sims the game won't generate as many. It won't ever stop completely, but it helps decrease their numbers.
These Sims run wild not in world or do their service jobs and premades do whatever it is they do. I see some premades as vendors if they don't have another job. I'll only interact with these Sims if they become friends or a spouse to my current household. Otherwise, I don't care about them much. However, I do enjoy seeing my own created fav Sims from time to time. :)
I've never played rotational, just one household per save. It's how I've always played for 20 years.
Happy Simming! <3
