This is the Los Angeles-styled capital city of San Andreas and home to the game's main character, Carl "CJ" Johnson.The Grove - Orange Grove, known affectionately to its residents as simply The Grove, is the neighborhood where CJ grew up, and naturally it will become his home base after he's escaped the mean streets of Liberty City. Not that Los Santos' streets are any less mean, mind you; after all, The Grove is home to the Orange Grove Families, the gang CJ will return to and eventually take control of as he rises to power among the criminal underworld of the city, and eventually, the state. CJ's experience in The Grove will be intensely personal--he returns to a home that's minus one mother and one younger brother, and he'll have to reconcile the loss of his family while running the streets with his older brother Sweet.
Vinewood - This is the San Andreas/GTA equivalent of Hollywood and the Santa Monica Mountains. In other words Vice City is to Miami as Liberty City is to NY. And in the same way Vibewood is Hollywood! This is not going to be the crime filled neighborhood that the Grove is and it will be filled with typical Star studded landmarks that you would expect from the district in real life. You will see landmarks like the Cathay Theater, the walk of fame, and the famous Vinewood sign, nestled high up in the Vinewood hills. Hey why not rob some of the houses of afffluent Vinewood types while you are up there checking out the studio's and tourst attractions?
Rodeo - This is GTA's rendering of Beverly hills. Vinewood may be the old seat of Los Santos' glitz and glamour, but the truly rich and snooty prefer to live and shop in Rodeo. This is the most affluent area of Los Santos, and it's where you'll find the most plastic surgery and designer clothing of any district in the city. If you're not thinking Beverly Hills yet--well, we just said it, so now you are. Think lots of trendy architecture and beautiful plastic people, and you're thinking the neighborhood of Rodeo.
Downtown - Given CJ's way of life, downtown Los Santos may not seem worth visiting--it's the financial center of the city, with a skyline that can be seen from miles around. You'll find all manner of bankers, businessmen, and other people in high-powered suits milling around downtown, not to mention landmarks like the Los Santos Convention Center and the Doc G Records Building (inspired by the famous Capitol Records building).
You'll be able to zip into and out of the downtown area with ease by riding the Brown Streak railroad, Los Santos' public transportation line. The Brown Streak travels to all parts of the city, making it a cinch to get from place to place. Just make sure you're on the train, and not in front of it.
The Beach - Previous Grand Theft Auto lead characters have had a famous aversion to water, so we can appreciate the delicious irony that the beaches of Los Santos will be a likely place for CJ to visit for a swim. And swimming won't just be a way for your virtual alter ego to cool off--it'll serve as good exercise to keep him in shape, too. The beach is also a great place to go if you're just looking to stir up trouble among the populace, as it'll always be crowded with tourists and sunbathers during the sweltering daytime. You'll even find attractions like an amusement park on the pier and the Santa Maria boardwalk that will make the beach worth a visit, not to mention the occasional beach party that may be going on well into the night. But if you attract the attention of the coppers, beware--whether you're on foot or in a car, the sand will always slow down your getaway.
The Freeway - New to the Grand Theft Auto experience are the twisting freeways that will serve as your rapid conduit through and around the city, as well to San Andreas' other major cities of San Fierro and Las Venturas. If nothing else, the Los Santos freeway will be a welcome timesaver--local street traffic can often delay your trip from one place to another. If you're trying to get somewhere in a hurry (and what street thug isn't), the freeways will be the way to go. In case you were wondering, Rockstar assures us the traffic on Los Santos' freeways will never be as bad as the standstills you see on those of the real Los Angeles.
Unlike in previous Grand Theft Auto games, if you do keep to the city streets, you'll get a little extra navigating help in the form of street signs that you can use to locate buildings by their actual addresses. Unlike in the cities Liberty and Vice, Los Santos' streets actually have names, and you'll need to pay close attention to names and intersections if you want to really learn your way around the place.
Clearly, Los Santos is a big place, and a seedy one as well. How will you blend in with the locals and find your place in the criminal hierarchy? Read on to find out one way you'll be able to carve out your own identity in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
