- For other uses of "pool", see Pool (disambiguation).
Pool is a community lot and a lot assignment in The Sims 3 and The Sims 4 as of Patch 27. They contain publicly-usable swimming pools.
The Pool (called Swimming Center) is also a playable lot in The Sims FreePlay, which allows sims to practice the diving hobby.
The Sims 3[]
- Attracts

Trivia[]
- There are no pool lots in Bridgeport and Starlight Shores, unless one counts the Aquarius poolside lounge in Bridgeport.
- Riverview, Moonlight Falls and Midnight Hollow only have indoor pools.
- There's a community lot Sundhöll Community Pool in Aurora Skies, but it's assigned as No Visitors Allowed. It's probably a mistake by the developers.
- The Riverside Pool in Roaring Heights might be a reference to the unreleased neighborhood of The Sims 2 called Riverside.
The Sims 4[]
Pools as a Lot assignment in The Sims 4 were not originally included in the base game. They were added with the Patch 27.
Pools are another great place for Sims who want to get fit. These lots are also a great place for Sims who don't have enough money to build their own pool.

The Sims FreePlay[]

A sim practicing diving at the swimming center.
The Swimming Center in The Sims FreePlay is unlocked during the quest "It's All Going Swimmingly." It contains an indoor pool with diving boards, a lifeguard chair, a slide, and a kiddie playground for toddlers. It is a location for sims to practice the diving skill if they do not have a pool at home. Sims can also be lifeguards, slide down the slide, swim in the pool, and play on the playground (toddlers only). There is a coffee machine near the front desk in case sims need to fill their energy need, as well as two bathrooms.
