- Detective Dan D. Mann
- Hidden passageway from the Police Station to the Bayou (behind the poster on the left wall)

Repairman Glitch
If you have a broken item in your house, don't hesitate to call up the repairman. He costs §100 per visit, which is an unnecessary dent in your wallet, but there is a way for you to keep your §100 and have your items repaired quickly. Follow these steps to get him to do most of the work for you, but not charge a simolean.
- Call up the repairman
- Wait for him to arrive
- Watch him repair the broken object and wait for the green reparation bar to reach near the top. (Do not let it reach the top, or you will be charged.)
- Exit your house before he is finished repairing
- Re-enter your house, and he will be gone, leaving the item's reparation status at the level it was when you exited your house
- Have your sim repair the remainder of the item
It seems like a bit of a hassle, but it works well if you've got a broken tv, only §100 simoleans to your name, and next to no Mechanical skill.
Trash Piles Glitch
The Artsies' rep goals requires 100 piles of trash. If you'd like to be able to complete this goal, be sure that you collect the piles of trash as soon as possible. There is a glitch in the Urbz (both DS and GBA) which makes the piles of trash stop appearing after a certain day. Simply pick up 100 and keep them until you're able to sell them to complete the Artsies' rep goal.
Collectibles
- Pile of Trash
- This is a foul, putrid, rank, and surprisingly fascinating pile of trash.
- Can be found in Urbania, Glasstown, the Carnival, the Sim Quarter, and the Cemetery.
- Aluminum Cans
- These are aluminum cans people didn't recycle... shame on them! But you can cash them in for a few extra Simoleans.
- Can be found in Urbania, Glasstown, the Carnival, the Docks, and the Sim Quarter.
- License Plate
- One of many license plates manufactured right here in Miniopolis, back when the prison doubled as a factory.
- Can be found in Urbania, Glasstown, the Carnival, and the Sim Quarter.
- Nuclear Fuel Rods
- For some reason these nuclear fuel rods are laying around Miniopolis. Though some types of radiation make you sick, in this game the radiation is quite safe.
- Can be found in the Bayou, and Moon Base Zeta.
- Three-Eyed Bog Frog
- You can find these strange frogs all over the wetter parts of Miniopolis. Three eyes? Yikes! What are they putting in the water out here?
- Can be found in the Bayou and in the first park on the left when entering Glasstown from the Urbania entrance.
