Body is 4 characters too short.
Spoiler
Brindleton Bay: Easily the best neighborhood in the game. It's a classic neighborhood with a lot of atmosphere, while still having its own unique feel. It also has enough lot space to build it up and make a proper community.
Sulani: Kind of boring, but it's unique and I love the architecture. It makes for a nice place to live, but the perfect vacation spot. Not enough lots, though.
Oasis Springs: I don't care about it all that much, personally. I rarely use it for my main sims. But I can respect it as a unique, fun place. And when I do use it, I can see how it's got a lot of character. Plus, the lots have beautiful placement; you have houses in a row, big properties, green spaces. Aaaaand I also love hunting for collectibles here during challenges.
Forgotten Hollow: Small and isolated. But unlike Glimmerbrook, it has a strong atmosphere and can justify the lack of life. Even the surrounding areas (town square, bench by the cliff, the lake, the forests) give your sims some things to keep themselves busy and look scary doing it. And we don't have a bunch of ugly shells that will clash with whatever I want to make. I wish more worlds had this strong a presence.
San Myshuno: I like some of the apartments, and the apartment life in general. I don't use it much since I like to play families, but a cozy apartment makes playing single or couple sims so much more fun. I really love seeing Festivals from my window and coming down to experience them. And it's perfect for socializing; my sims can hang out with their friends at the karaoke bars, go on dates at the lounge, or exercise and hang out with the girls at the gym... Before ditching gym to munch on junk food at the nearby food stands.
Glimmerbrook: Just a generic forest-y area, and there's not a lot of room to build or do anything to make it self-sustaining like the previous neighborhoods. They didn't really do anything to make it feel witchy, it's just cottagecore. But it's cute and sometimes I need a generic forest area. My current family has their mansion here because it feels so isolated and quaint.
Selvadorada: Love this place, but it loses a lot of marks because there's nothing to do here. It's only good for the ruins, and everything else is shallow. There's not a lot of space to flesh the area out with restaurants and lounges and stuff, so you can't really fix it. But I really do love the culture and exploring the ruins, so.
Windenburg: I keep forgetting how to spell this world's name. It's got a lot of space and culture. I do like how big it is, and I love using the island. In fact, I use the island constantly because I put my wizarding school there. But the other half of the map is boring, so I rarely use it.
StrangerVille: The """gameplay""" was abysmal, but I like having a last-stop, small-town desert village with a secret and a side of weirdness. I like living here sometimes. Unfortunately, it's just too small to customize, and the enormous amount of shells make it hard to have my ideal neighborhood feel. If this place had like 5-7 more lots, it'd be one of my most-played neighborhoods.
Evergreen Harbor: It does its job. It feels like the most generic world ever, but it's fine. I like dumping extra sims here.
Newcrest: It somehow feels less generic than Evergreen, but otherwise it's the same thing. I just use this place to dump lots and sims.
Willow Creek: Better than Newcrest and Evergeen, but idk.
Mt. Komorebi: Nice to visit, not that interesting to live in. It has a lot of culture, but there's not much to do that you can't do somewhere else, aside from winter sports. And you don't need to live there to use them, so.
Britechester: I never use this place because it's small and my sims usually attend college from home - there's nothing at the dorms that makes it worth interrupting my regular gameplay to stay there.
Granite Falls: I never vacation here because what do you even do here, aside from walk around and pick up flowers? It's too small to really customize; I wanted to fill it with different spas and restaurants, but I only had room for one. You might as well just stay in your own back yard, for all the good this place does. I only bought Outdoor Retreat for the tents and the Herbalism Skill. And then we got tents in Mt. Komorebi, so RIP.
Magnolia Promenade: I dumped some businesses here, but tbh I never, ever, ever use this world. It's so small that I have no reason to visit it. The lots are too big for most houses, and why would I want my rich sims to build their mansions in such a barren and lifeless area? I don't even use the businesses I place here because other worlds have room for businesses.
Del Sol Valley: Like the atmosphere, but it's too small. There's nothing to do here that you can't do somewhere else, and better.
Batuu: No.
