*San Andreas is obviously different from its rendition in [[GTA: San Andreas]]. For example, [[Los Santos]] has been completely redesigned.

In addition, V's rendition of the city appears to be larger, and more geographically consistent with the real-life city of Los Angeles.

Not only does Rockstar's information confirm this, but also cars, landmarks (for example, [[wp:Pacific Park|Pacific Park]], which is parodied as [[Pleasure Pier]], was not opened until 1996), and the general game's plot on the recession era (late 2007-2010) and post-recession (2010-present day) United States.

The State of San Andreas is a fictional West Coast state in the United States. The state is based on California and Nevada. Only the southern half of the state is present in the events of Grand Theft Auto V.

Information

The only area of San Andreas that is playable in GTA V is Los Santos and Blaine County. However, this area is obviously not representative of all the state. Though the map in GTA V is an island, the map is simply designed that way in order to keep the feeling of freedom for the player. In theory, Los Santos and Blaine County may very well be connected with other fictional areas of the state, but simply do not appear.

The small portion of San Andreas in GTA V features a number of mountain ranges, farms, deserts, woodlands, lakes, parks, towns, and a major city (Los Santos). The capital of San Andreas is unknown, but it may be based on Sacramento.
