So my Sim started a fire in their apartment, there is an alarm blaring on the wall but no firemen ever show up. Eventually I try to do some action and am shown that the sim must extinguish the fire.
Is there no fire dept. for the sims that live in apartments?

The Sims 4 does not have fire fighters, police or burglars atm...(hope this changes) which is very sad if you ask me. ;-;
Why did I just give the franchise another $60.00 for expansions when something as basic as a fire dept isn't available? What was I thinking.
Game has been out for far too many years to not have fire fighters, police or burglars. A total waste of money on my part. I was hoping for so much more with the expansions.
Welcome to the Sims 4......(sorry if that sounds rude but it's sadly true)
This is just ridiculous and feels like a shell of a game. Here I thought, buy some expansions, and flesh out the game... Not with the expansions I bought,.
Sad that I can't refund expansion packs or I would.
Shame, EA, shame on you.
Don't rely on thoughts. There's tons of information available on all the expansions so there's not really much of a reason to make assumptions over what you're going to get for your money. The power is very much in your hands.

So by the time that I had my first kitchen fire in TS4 it was after buying the 3 expansions that I just bought.
Not all of my sims are brave souls who put their fires out themselves. Its completely unimmersive.

Only thing similar to the burglar in a way is the vampires that break into your sims home. Cept they're not stealing things and looking to get a 'bite' to eat. Tend to forget to lock most of the doors for some sims and the end result is not good.
Luckily with the sprinkler system and sims actually feeling the need to put the fire out autonomously my sim has never died by fire. Had a party one of the guests had went upstairs to turn on the fireplace for some reason ruined that room and the party. About two sims there put out the fire autonomously and they don't have the confident trait either. Guess it just depends.
@writing_reg It could work. If you ever played the sims urbz they had this one sim that would revive your sim when something went wrong (fire, etc.) by coming in on a line like they came from a helicopter. It was pretty silly, but appropriate for the sims. Always thought it was pretty funny but unique.
It has to be outside? I've always hung it on a wall inside. Yikes.
In RL all dwellings must be equipped with smoke detectors

Seems to me they only need come up the elevator or stairs to get to apartment to put out fire. They need no roads, they simply appear outside the elevator or stairs to do their business.

Well they do not really have stairs or much of an elevator they have a door that teleports from outside to their apt door only.. It's not like sims 2 or 3 - you don't even see a lobby - you go in the front door and they are in the hall to go in your apartment or to knock on the door of the next door apartment - mostly to complain about noise. Nothing much like previous sims games.. I highly doubt firemen could even go into the apts. I knock on my neighbors door and they just stop noise - not invite my sim in. That teleport seems to have one function - getting your sims from the apartment to the festivales - period.

They can't go into apartment unless your sim gives them a key and all they do is come in and eat all your food. Nothing else. Might have worked in previous sims games but not this one. Try it for yourself.

Sadly, just one more feature removed/ not added to TS4.
