In Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, there are 37 save points that Carl Johnson acquires throughout 1992. These are divided into basic save points, which are granted to Carl as he progresses through the stroyline, and safe houses, which are save points with added amenities that Carl may purchase after unlocking them by completing certain missions. All safe houses are needed to complete the game (contributing 15% of the total), costing a total of $879,000.
Main Safe Houses
There are 8 main save houses that are made available to Carl as he completes missions in the game's story. All are free of charge, with one exception. These may or may not be inside an enclosed structure, but consist of no more than a save icon, and in two cases, a usable garage. Only the Johnson House has a wardrobe of them.
There are 29 other safe houses scattered around the map that are unlocked at various points in the story. Safe houses are purchaseable properties containing a save icon as well as a wardrobe, which distiguishes them from save points. Safe houses may also contain usable garages, capable of storing varying numbers of vehicles.
