Lot Traits: Do you change them to fit your current household?

...Personally i am option 2.

I change them all the time, such as breeding ground when I wanted my sims to have twins. That way I get to experience most of the traits since I mainly play one household.

If I'm moving sims I'll keep one or two lots traits consistent because I like the idea of some traits being connected to the location rather than the household. Then I'll add whatever is needed for that specific household.

It depends on what the traits are. I always change Needs TLC or Gremlins, but I like to keep traits Cursed and Haunted around because they keep things interesting.

I don't like negative traits like gremlins and others. I think that my sims want live in a safe house or flat. ;)

I change them a lot. I'm not patient with gaining skills, so I use the skill boosting lot traits often.

I select my traits and keep them, but will move families to lots with desired traits if it fits. I have, in the past, moved a family from Windenburg to San Myshuno with the story idea that they were relocating specifically to send their children to a prestigious magnet school located in the city. However, once set the lot's traits may never change.

I usually change them to fit what I imagine my current household to be like, but often forget to add them on lots which don't have lot traits at the start of the game. I have a family in Windenburg which consists of a single father and his kids (and his girlfriend recently). He is working in the culinary career, so I added the Chef's Kitchen trait. One of the kids loves to read, so I gave the lot trait Peace and Quiet. The last trait I added has to do with the story of the family. The children's mother died and they moved to a new home for a fresh start. I added her ghost in manage worlds (just put some ghost from the gallery and changed the appearance a bit to match the kids ones). Then I added the Haunted trait to see if she would come visit them.

I usually get rid immediately from the gremlins trait, as I can't stand all my stuff breaking literally every night. I usually keep Quake Zone and add it to every other lot in the same neighborhood for a more realistic approach.

Not sure what to vote. I rarely use lot traits on residential lots. If I use them I often like to give the same trait for the whole neighbourhood... The whole thing is more about story telling and less taking advantage of the perks. If I download a house from the gallery I almost certainly remove all the lot traits.

I never change them I just leave it, Its my way of making the game more random.
