I might put a family on a lot in the middle of a neighborhood, then landscape the lots around it like the surrounding area to appear like my one family lives there alone. :)

You think like I do. I did that in the TS2 one time. I built a ranch and on the opposite lots I put echo's horses on there and made it look like all those other lots were their pastures. lol I was able to use move object on while in build mode to extend the fencing even to the other vacant lots next door to the lot the ranch stood on. It was pretty cool. I also built a volcanic hood with just one 'tribe' on a lot and all the surrounding lots were the jungles etc. I like the way you think.

Thank you! It's awesome what you did in Sims2. I haven't done a whole neighborhood yet, but I do sometimes make vacant lots part of the landscape. This is the Umbrage Manor lot. The vacant lot across the street, I just put a tree on it. Gives appearance of more space. Oh, and this is the back of the house. :)

Yeah, that's really great looking like that. Just think if we could open up the small districts we could build across the street and just have our Sim run across the street to milk their cows etc. And wouldn't have to actually build homes etc. on them. I hope they do expand this game to let us play our imagination but in the mean time you have the right idea in my view. I wanted to do things like that in this game but needed all my lots in this game for my Sims. More lots will help do these type things for sure. A whole slew of them would be even better.
