They come with seasons so Riverblossom Hills is a nice idea - especially being so quiet/pretty. Perfect place to quietly raise a big family!
On the other hand Desiderata Valley screams "soccermom minivan" to me and I feel like that is the life they should have. Kids activities, etc.
Where have you placed your Ottomas fam?

The only time I've ever actually played the Ottomas family was when I placed them in my custom neighborhood called Legacy Valley. They were used as place holders for the Legacy Challenge album I was working on at the time. At that time the Ottomas family was so bad to place in neighborhoods because of glitches their family caused. In my game, Sam had a baby fathered by a local stray dog according to the family tree. That family could really break a neighborhood. Those were the days. Thank the sim Gods those glitches were fixed in later patches.
Player: *instructs sim to prepare meal* "Then eat something, you little goofball!"
Sim: *starts cooking meal*
-5 seconds later-
Sim: *Stops cooking meal* "I'm so hungry!"
Player: *head hits desk*
LOL!!!! Man that family was soooooo glitchy back in the day. Ahhh fond memories... not really.
Then you should! I love big families also. I just usually like to make them. I think that glitch kept a lot of people away, and probably still does even if it has been fixed. Hard to change that mind set when you spent so long giving them the stink eye.
There is a large house that came with Riverblossom Hills. It takes most of there money which makes
it fun.

I just installed UC a couple days ago so I'm starting over again and focusing right now on the Pleasantview premades. I'm not planning on placing the Ottomas family since the family size is a hassle and I'd rather catch up with my old favorites.
First thing: download corrected versions of all premade families/neighborhoods. I have some links if you are interested.
Also, hm... I remember back in the day i played them in a custom neighborhood alongside other families from the bin, you should try that. Creating a neighborhood for those families should be part of the fun, as they don't belong anywhere. But, i would add them to Desiderata Valley
which screams "soccermom minivan". haha
