How many Sims do you typically play with? And why? For me, bigger is better because I have more to do. I use MCCC to even make my household larger than 8 Sims sometimes. I also use MCCC to extend the long lifespan even a bit farther. That way, no matter what I never get bored. Want to play with kids? I've got a couple of those. An elder? Yup. A single Sim who's ready to mingle? Got that too. A married couple figuring out life? Sure!I can focus on multiple storylines without every leaving one household. It's awesome.

I always have a 7-8 sims in every household, but I should note that usually 1-2 of those sims are pets. I love playing with big families. I think I'd get super bored if I had less to play with in one household.

I start with a single sim. Marry them. Have a cute little family then pow more kids and pets. I only have 1 full house (alien pregnancy to blame) and it is exhausting

I’ve always preferred larger households since it’s what I’m used to. Plus, there’s more sims to control and I love it!

I play all type sized households, but I do like my bigger families.

Typically I have 3 or 4 sims in a household. They’re not related and I usually make them fight to the last sim.

How large is your average household?

Large households keep me busy. I find that if i have just one kid my sims have a lot of spare time. Its fun trying to keep everyone happy and alive lol. It brings my house to to life and things are always happening that I cant control. Super fun

usually i like the 3-4 sim household. i feel that anything more is crazy and lowkey stresses me out haha. i also like to focus on each sim individually so i can make sure all their needs are good and everything i want them to achieve can be achieved! (although my current sim family is about 5 sims and a dog)

My average would be 2-3, but since I rarely play households that size I didn't vote for it.
I often play single sims, but when I play a family, they're usually about 4-5 sims (excluding pets).

If i play human sim, it usually 3-5ish, if everyone is a vampire (usually all family related) can get up to 8 sims.
