Oh this is so frustrating! (The way the game now generates Townies)
Regina:
Yes, if you have the notownieregen mod, you won't have Downtownies spawning after you've deleted all the characters. :)

Thanks! That's good to know because I am doing a whole new hood. Taking my time though! Need that phone and romance mod :)

You only want to do this on an empty neighborhood, but what you do is, while in the Neighborhood screen, open the cheat box and type "deleteallcharacters".
It will warn you that you're about to nuke your neighborhood into oblivion, but it will literally delete every single character.
Yes, done that. I have also created maybe 20 townies and YAs using Inge's 'make me a townie' option on the teleporter bush.
What I thought you said was that you could get the game to only generate some types of characters, or was your comment related to the 'no children' mod, which I don't have?

I took my time, weeks, read all I could, made custom n'hood in simcity and so on. It is so worth it to create your own, I love seeing the townies I created walk past, not one of them has a mutant frog mouth or lips they could trip over. None of them have eyes bigger than Bambi's and they are not the grinning fools that CAS makes them.
I lost my first n'hood because of all the bugs in the game, armed with the critical fixes I'm hoping I've built this one to last.
Regina:
After reading everything I've read over the past months about exploding neighborhoods I don't know if it's possible to build one to last. LOL But at last I think now building one to last longer is doable. I've still never managed to play a neighborhood to ruination. I end up letting myself get overwhelmed with too many sims, then deleting all the characters and starting over. I've rarely even got past gen 2!
For the moment in that neighborhood I'm just going with a few teen Townies and service workers. I gave myself a good scare today, thought I had royally messed up something and it turned out that a mod I'd installed didn't like my game. It was the darndest thing! My sims kept jumping out of interactions, they'd try to call a sim on the phone and instead of talking to them, the sim would suddenly appear in their living room, then disappear as soon as they hung up the phone--it was bizarre! My kids were wondering if sims were suddenly working on some kind of holographic projector communications and their own brand of teleportation. :P
