City Buildings - Police Station Reference Guide





Criminals enjoy robbing shops blind, embezzling funds, and setting fires, which are all terrible things for a budding city. The trouble is that the longer criminals are out there, the more brazen they become and the harder and longer they are to be rehabilitated.





That's where the police comes in. Patrol cars can stop criminals in their tracks and ensure that criminals are processed and reenter society well-behaved. On your part, you can prevent criminals from every appearing by making sure that young Sims get an education, getting rid of abandoned buildings, and providing enough jobs so that people don't resort to crime to pay the bills.
