This article is about the signpost with messages in the player's town. For the item in Animal Crossing, see Item:Sign Board (Animal Crossing).
A signpost in Animal Crossing: City Folk

A signpost is a structure in the player's town in Animal Crossing, Animal Crossing: Wild World, and Animal Crossing: City Folk. Several signposts are placed around town and each contain a message, often a gameplay tip. When a villager moves in, their house replaces a signpost.

Appearances

In Animal Crossing

In Animal Crossing, each acre has a set amount of signposts, and each town has at least 15. When a villager moves in, their house will take the place of a signpost and vice-versa. Additionally, when a camper, Gracie, Katrina, or Redd visits, they appear where a signpost is.

In Wild World and City Folk

The player reading a signpost in Animal Crossing: City Folk

In Animal Crossing: Wild World and Animal Crossing: City Folk, like in Animal Crossing, villagers move in over signposts. In Wild World each town has around nine signposts, while in City Folk each town has around 25 to 30. In Wild World, Gulliver's UFO crashes on a signpost when shot down.
