Its real-life archetype is [[WP:The Bronx|The Bronx]]. Bohan is located in the north-east of [[Liberty City in GTA IV Era|Liberty City]]. Bohan is unlocked since the beginning of the Grand Theft Auto IV story line.

According to the in-game Public Broadcasting documentary, Bohan is a Dutch word meaning "Dutch word" (Although this is untrue. The real dutch word for "Dutch word" is "Nederlands woord"). Most Bohan avenues are named after major prisons, Alcatraz Avenue, Rykers Avenue, Sing Sing Avenue, San Quentin Avenue, and Guantanamo Avenue being five examples, while others are named after breakdancing moves, such as Worm Street, Spin Street, Applejack Street and Valdez Street. South Bohan is also advertised in the game as the birth place of hip-hop.

The police rarely give a concern for any of the crime, noted when [[Niko Bellic ]]is able to enter a warehouse and kill a gang of drug dealers, all without any police trouble for [[Manny Ecsuela]], who was making a documentary about the crime and corruption of the borough. Manny's [[Jay Hamilton|camera man]] comments after Niko kills the gang: "More senseless death, and the police aren't even here yet...".

[[Northern Gardens]] is a slightly less deprived area with considerable green space and a beach in its northern limits. It provides Bohan's Policing and Medical Services. The major function of the neighborhood is its housing of the Northern Gardens Projects which is one of [[Liberty City in GTA IV Era|Liberty City]]'s largest housing estates. The projects' main complex shows signs of gentrification with the presence of small convenience shops and comparatively modern housing facilities. The police station is directly connected to Northern Gardens Projects by means of a short staircase, presumably to allow for an improved police presence and more effective response to crime.

[[Boulevard]] is Bohan's largest district and contains considerable parkland, green space and a beach in its northern limits. Boulevard is the safest and least deprived of the seven districts. The areas to the south of the district are more urban in character and are focused around the Grand Boulevard thoroughfare.

*When the player drives off either bridges entering Bohan, a [[Glitches|glitch]] will happen. The game's short-term vehicle spawning memory will become corrupt, but it'll fix itself, and either your vehicle or someone else's car will spawn in carparks or parked on the streets. It'll still work if the player drives in a public service, emergency or industrial, it'll just spawn a nearby car.
