Would this result in a BFBVFS?
Nepheris:
Just wondering if it's safe to move a family from the main neighbourhood to a sub-hood. (I know moving to another hood leads to a string of VBT's)
Also, can the main hood stay in touch with the subhood over the phone and vise versa?

Normally I would think it should be ok. Sims in my main 'hood keep in touch with their friends & relatives in the different subhoods via the phone all the time.
One possible thing I'd like to warn you about with moving your sims. I have found that if one of the sims is pregnant that weirdness can happen when moving them. Once I moved a pregnant sim from Pleasantview to the Downtown subhood. She gave birth about 12 simhours after moving her into her new place and to my surprise the father of her baby was now a random Downtown townie she'd never met. I do not know what caused the glitch. I moved her the correct way, by first having her move out of the house via the computer and into the sim bin. Then I moved her into one of the Downtown homes. For some reason this broke the pregancy tie with the father of the unborn child (who lived in the main neighborhood) and substituted the townie.
I've read of a couple other incidences of this, and I think this could be related to the Seasons problem with Sam Ottomas' pregnancy. Moving pregnant sims within the main 'hood or subhood that they were already residing in seems to be ok. But moving them from the main 'hood to a subhood and vice-versa (or from one subhood to another, like from the shopping district to Downtown) does seem to have a good chance of messing with the pregnancy.
Nepheris:
Hmm interesting, thanks for that warning.
kutto:
Moving sims between subhoods is fine, as long as you do so through the sim bin. Never put families into the lot bin. The only glitch about subhoods is moving sims through "Propose...Move In". It seems that the game miscalculates the moving sim's money, and you get odd amounts coming with them.

Not only can they stay in touch by phone, but Sims can visit via invites for lunch, dinner, parties, etc. I have a subhood set up for the elder Sims, based on retirement living in Florida. No snow. Just sunshine, heat, and humidity.
