The Sims 3 Late Night Guide › Essentials › Community Locations

Community Locations

Like all towns, Bridgeport has many community lots that allow Sims to pursue to new activities or activities that require equipment too expensive to have at home at first, such as exercise machines at the gym or a computer at the library.

There is another benefit to visiting these community spots, too—meeting Sims. These locations can get pretty busy, giving you ample opportunities to socialize and meet your neighbors. If your Sim thirsts for socialization, be sure to hit up these spots.

Public School 67

Interactions:
Attend Painting Class (§400)

Public School 67 is where children go during the day to fill their brains with the knowledge needed to be productive adults. Getting good grades here can lead to a wonderful adult life full of engagement. Adults, however, don’t have much to do here other than attend a painting class and start their personal art careers.

True Modern Art Museum

Interactions :
View

The True Modern Art Museum is a good spot for Sims that love art to admire works from great talents that have come before. The museum charges no admission fee, so Sims can view art and enjoy the mood benefits without dropping a single Simoleon.

There may not be a lot to do here outside of viewing art or coming back during specific opportunities, but Sims that love art will at least find others with similar interests here. Who knows, your Sim may lock eyes with the love of their life when looking up from a fascinating sculpture.

Bridgeportís museum has many arty objects to feast your eyes on.

Bridgeport Eternal Rest Cemetery

Interactions:
Get Part-Time Job
Tour Mausoleum
Explore Catacombs
Mourn

Sims who have gone before are buried at the cemetery. The chief purpose of this community spot is to mourn the dead, but there are plenty of other interactions available among the tombstones and grave markers.

There are statues to admire, such as the grim reaper stationed near the entrance. The cemetery is full of trees, so a Loves the Outdoors Sim will get great pleasure from being around those.

Note

Sims can also seek part-time work at the cemetery.

Tip

There is a good fishing spot just above the graveyard.

One central feature of the cemetery is the mausoleum. This imposing structure houses more of the dead. Touring the mausoleum can be educational for some Sims.

The option to explore the catacombs below the graveyard is a source of excitement for Brave Sims. Sims without the Brave trait risked getting the Horrified moodlet, which is devastating to their overall mood for several hours.

Tip

Explore the depths! You may find a magical gnome to take home.

Take a load off and just walk the graveyard, enjoying the outdoors and the wonderful central statue.

Bridgeport Public Library

Interactions:

Use Computer

The Bridgeport Public Library is open to all and free of charge. The library is stacked with hundreds of books, so your Sim is bound to find something of interest here to flip through and just relax.

The library is also a social hot spot, especially for Sims with the Bookworm trait. It is common to bump into another Sim with similar interests at the library.

Note

The shelves of the library are stocked with plenty of books, but you will not find any recipes or sheet music here. Those must be purchased at the bookstore.

The Bridgeport library even has a rooftop zen garden to stroll through and forget your worries.

The library also has computers for Sims that don’t have one at home (for space or money reasons), and any computer activity you could do from home like chat, play games, and check real estate can be done from a library computer.

Tip

The museum and library are great places to earn the Educated moodlet.

AJV Wellness Center

Interactions:
Use Exercise Machine
Use Treadmill
Shower

All Sims should exercise, not just those pursuing a career in Professional Athletics or developing the Athletic skill. This gym is located at the top of a high-rise building.

The three stories of exercise equipment include treadmills, exercise benches, and a huge pool for getting your swim on. Use of the facility is always free.

Because the gym is often busy, it also doubles as a socialization spot where like-minded Sims can mingle and talk about the latest exercise trends or anything that suits their fancy.

Caution

It’s easy to get grungy at the gym, so watch your Hygiene. If you start to smell bad, you’ll turn off the Sims around you. Luckily, there’s a full shower and bathroom area, so use the gym’s showers to wash off the funk.

Tip

If your Sims need to take care of personal hygiene, regardless of whether or not a workout is involved, they can stop by the AJV Wellness Center and grab a quick shower.
